>How physical space emerges from configuration space is a deep mystery. Exactly, how quantum collapse happens, or what quantum collapse even is, is one of the biggest mysteries of physics. And I'll argue that as long as we don't have an explanation for that bridge between the "configuration space" and the "physical space" like you call them, the former may as well be magic. Yes it would make learning and explaining the rules of magic a bit easier if you get into that mindset, but it still doesn't make it intuitive, but just easier to accept. If anything, it does feel we could very well be living in a simulation governed by arbitrarily defined rules that exist on a different plane than other physical laws. Hmmm maybe we should give non-local hidden variable theories another look...
