Abstract

We thank the Commentator for his detailed critique, which provides an opportunity to clarify the physical foundations of our work. While we appreciate the emphasis on rigor when applying quantum information concepts to high-energy physics (HEP), we respectfully disagree with the assertion that our assumptions lack a physical or operational basis. In the following sections, we address each point raised, demonstrating that our modeling is grounded in the established physics of QCD fragmentation and production dynamics in $e^+e^-\to \Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$, as supported by recent experimental and theoretical advancements. Our approach treats the system as an effective open bipartite system during the intrinsic production stage, rather than during post-production propagation, which aligns with the analyses cited in our references.
