Comment on Griffiths about locality, realism and Bell experiments
Emilio Santos

TL;DR
The paper discusses the nature of quantum mechanics, arguing it is realistic but challenges the notions of locality and strict causality, especially in the context of Bell experiments.
Contribution
It provides a philosophical analysis clarifying the implications of Bell experiments on locality and causality in quantum mechanics.
Findings
Quantum mechanics is compatible with realism.
It violates either strong locality or strict causality.
Bell experiments challenge classical notions of causality.
Abstract
I argue that quantum mechanics is a realistic theory, but it violates either strong locality (no superluminal influences) or strict causality (diiferent effects cannot follow from the same cause).
