TL;DR
This paper introduces a simplified thought experiment combining Schrödinger's cat and Wigner's friend to explore quantum measurement and observer effects, emphasizing the importance of understanding quantum physics.
Contribution
It presents a novel, simplified variant of a classic quantum thought experiment to clarify observer-related paradoxes in quantum mechanics.
Findings
Highlights the conceptual implications for quantum measurement
Reinforces the importance of observer perspective in quantum theory
Stimulates discussion on quantum paradoxes
Abstract
I present a simple variant of the Schr\"odinger cat meets Wigner's friend thought experiment. If you are shocked by it, you have not understood quantum physics (no words are missing from this sentence).
