A god of the gaps argument requires a gap in our understanding. This is not the case as we understand there are no local physical hidden variables behind the randomness at the quantum level.
There is a gap in our understanding. We do not know what, if anything of any type, is there. So you insert "god" when "nothing", based on our best understanding, serves just as well and vastly more economically.
That's fine....except we know physical local variables are not there. So the "gap" can only be filled by something non physical....non local.
Inserting "nothing" is burying your head in the sand and pretending there isn't a problem to explain.
