The key difference, unlike the usual sock example or your letter example, it is not about knowing. The superimposed quantum states have not been fixed. It is both colour or or letters or states at the same time all the time unlike it is measured. It is not the knowledge about a pre-existed, the individual state does not exist until measurement. That is the crazy part.
