Abstract
What is fundamentally quantum? We argue that most of the features, problems, and paradoxes – such as the measurement problem, the Wigner's friend paradox and its proposed solutions, single particle nonlocality, and no-cloning – allegedly attributed to quantum physics have a classical analogue if one is to interpret classical physics as fundamentally indeterministic. What really characterizes non-classical effects are incompatible physical quantities, which, in quantum quantum theory are associated to the fundamental constant $\hbar$.

期刊介绍:
Quantum is an open-access peer-reviewed journal for quantum science and related fields. Quantum is non-profit and community-run: an effort by researchers and for researchers to make science more open and publishing more transparent and efficient.
