What is the difference between things that "cannot be explained (by local physical phenomena)" and "gaps in our understanding"? Is there somehow an "understanding" in things that cannot be explained? If so, what is it? If not, then it's a gap.
Yes, there is a scientific understanding(Bell's theorem) that quantum randomness cannot be fully explained by any theory of local hidden physical variables.
The fact that randomness can't be explained by things we can observe isn't up for question. However, why can't it be? That is still up for grabs. We don't know that. And you're saying it points to God.
