I'm very far from an expert on quantum theory but I do think it's interesting how this approach takes the "large scale patterns, small scale unpredictable" model of the Lorenz attractor, and how similar that is to the (very controversial!) Wolfram physics project. Compare this model: We have to suppose that the whole universe, and literally everything there is in it, is collectively a chaotic system evolving precisely on some cosmic fractal geometry. and the Wolfram model: From the multiway causal graph, one can project out the specific causal graph for each possible evolution history I don't think Stephan Wolfram has gone so far as to claim the universe is physically made of his "causal graph of rules" idea, but he does argue that you can model both quantum physics and relativity using this model with no "special cases".
