Consider an electron out in space far from away from everything. It is too far away to interact with anything. Does the electron stop existing? QM tells us no. For us to know it is there, we would need to interact with it. The interaction is not what makes the electron exist, it exist there independently of anything interacting with it. I don't know where you got the idea a QM particle is in a state of quantum flux.When an electron is not interacting, it appears as a wave. When this wave interacts, it appears as a particle. Does the electron really change or is it just the interaction that changes the perception? Is it a particle, wave or something we are yet to understand? Answer those questions and we will see you in the headlines.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.
