There's one major shortcoming that the answer doesn't seem to touch on: pilot wave theory doesn't explain relativity whatsoever, while quantum field theory does. We've experimentally confirmed relativity, so at best, pilot wave theory is incomplete.
- naasking 10y agoYou're confusing quantum mechanics with quantum field theory. Pilot wave theory is just QM, although some field theory extensions have been discussed. There's no particular reason such an extension would be impossible.
