摘要

Recently, a counter-argument has been presented regarding the invalidity of the Pusey-Barrett-Rudolph (PBR) theorem (Cabbolet, Found. Phys. 53, 64 2023). This claim has sparked a debate, with some authors defending the PBR theorem (Hofer-Szabó, Found. Phys. 54, 36 2024), but the proponent of the claim has insisted on his argument (Cabbolet, Found. Phys. 54, 69 2024; Cabbolet, Found. Phys. 54, 48 2024). Moreover, the author claimed to have proved that the PBR theorem is incorrect by a generic counterexample (Cabbolet, Found. Phys. 54, 48 2024). In this paper, we contribute to the discussion with some new arguments. We demonstrate that the PBR theorem contains no errors and remains intact.
