In fact, Erwin Schrödinger himself didn't present his "cat" idea as a proposed experiment. He didn't devise it to ask deep questions about the role of a human being in the observation process.

Meanwhile, I’m still dealing with my shock about Erwin Schrödinger. For me right now, he exists in two states of being at once. In other words, Erwin Schrödinger has become Schrödinger’s Cat.

A recent investigation found damning evidence that famed physicist Erwin Schrödinger was a pedophile — and even groomed and impregnated a 17-year-old girl.
