Fact is that the position isn't "unknown", it is in both positions at once. The double-slit experiment is strong evidence for this, we can see that the particle went through both slits at once by measuring a lot of particles and seeing where they end up. If you block one slit and then shoot particles, then block the other slit and shoot particles, you end up with a completely different pattern than if you have both open at once. This isn't difficult to understand, the only difficult part is people not wanting to believe it is true and trying to come up with classical explanations for quantum mechanics, even though we have hard proof that classical physics can't explain this. The difficult part is that even though the particle went through both slits, it only ever ends up in a single spot at the end, that is the "wave function collapse", it was a wave that went through both slits, and then it collapses to a single point when we measure it at the end. That is still not well understood by anyone today. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment
