No. "Particle" and "wave" are analogies. They're not even wrong, because they're not descriptions of what actually happens. The real problem is we don't have an analogy for what actually happens, because - by everyday expectations - the traditional interpretations are beyond weird. And the more recent interpretations are even weirder than that. It's likely - after Bell - that there's something non-local happening. And after this paper it's likely that whatever it is may not even be compatible with a stable identity for the observer. https://www.nature.com/articles/s42005-021-00589-1 https://www.nature.com/articles/s42005-021-00589-1 Which seems to be arguing that instead of many worlds, there are many observers - not just simultaneously, but sequentially. In other words, it's our belief in a consistent self with stable memories that may be wrong.
