Hi Paul, a wonderful clarification of why observation alters the behaviour of quantum stuff. But I am still unsure how this would work if for example you are doing the double slit experiment in a room with the light on (with photons flying around) then surely “the apple has been bitten” regardless of whether an observer is there. That is, it seems that the observer effect is simply caused by the person turning on the light to look??
