Thank you for your thoughtful response. I have noticed some the same sociological idiosyncrasies that you have observed in the scientific community. There seems to be a sort of group think, and they completely ignore anything that is not in a peer reviewed paper. My experience was in integrated circuit design and testing including imaging systems, not quantum physics. But got interested in QM in my retirement. I look for the cracks the present theory, and try to look them clearly and logically. You might also be interested in my latest article, "The mind-blowing mysteries of time". as it is my most popular article to date. Looking at Physics from a sociological point of view is not what I have been doing, but I see it can be fruitful. Good luck in your inquiries.
