The problem with that idea is that we don't have any other model, and little room for it. We already know from Bell's inequality and the experiments that verified it that there can't be underlying variables that we haven't detected yet (or if they exist, we have to rethink special relativity and by extension QFT). It's also quite hard to explain why the wave function is so good at predicting the results of experiments if it's not a part of the underlying reality.
