The United Nations has designated 2025 as the ‘International Year of Quantum Science and Technology’ in recognition of the 100-year anniversary of the theory of quantum mechanics. As with all fields of science, unbiased empirical evidence can establish if a scientific theory is valid or not. By repeating what had been done twice before, I developed a nonlocal no-go method, i.e., the Method of Everything, that tested without ambiguity physicist John S Bell’s superdeterminism loophole, thereby establishing that nonlocal cause predetermines local effects. This means that quantum mechanics is not a fundamental theory as currently recognized. It also means that Albert Einstein was correct about quantum mechanics being an incomplete theory. In the peer-reviewed Method of Everything manuscript, I presented unambiguous empirical evidence that confirmed local events are predetermined nonlocally. Therefore, the goal of this article is not to rehash what has already been published. Rather, I will review the manuscript by addressing how I used artwork as a mechanism to empirically confirm superdeterminism by leading the reader through the lessons I learned and the steps taken while also addressing why scientists, in general, could not make the same discovery. Moreover, I have provided an experiment for the entire human race to confirm and thus peer-review my findings for themselves by testing if the functions of motion are predetermined laws of nature. Accordingly, I discuss the ramifications of this discovery as well as how the findings can help to advance science.

It is well known that there is a freedom-of-choice loophole or superdeterminism loophole in Bell's theorem. Since no experiment can completely rule out the possibility of superdeterminism, it seems that a local hidden variable theory consistent with relativity can never be excluded. In this paper, we present a new analysis of local hidden variable theories. The key is to notice that a local hidden variable theory assumes the universality of the Schroedinger equation, and it permits that a measurement can be in principle undone in the sense that the wave function of the composite system after the measurement can be restored to the initial state. We propose a variant of the EPR-Bohm experiment with reset operactions that can undo measurements. We find that according to quantum mechanics, when Alice's measurement is undone after she obtained her result, the correlation between the results of Alice's and Bob's measurements depends on the time order of these measurements, which may be spacelike separated. Since a local hidden variable theory consistent with relativity requires that relativistically non-invariant relations such as the time order of spacelike separated events have no physical significance, this result means that a local hidden variable theory cannot explain the correlation and reproduce all predictions of quantum mechanics even when assuming superdeterminism. This closes the major superdeterminism loophole in Bell's theorem.

Hance and Hossenfelder recently claim that the extensive experimental confirmations of Bell's Theorem do not in fact demonstrate that nature is nonlocal, but merely that nature can be local only if the distant detector settings in a Bell-EPR setup are not statistically independent. They suggest that such interdependence could take a local-deterministic form. There is no question that in general quantum mechanics not only allows but demands that the distant detectors be entangled and thus correlated, even though it is possible to do experiments in which such correlations can be ignored. The real question is whether entanglement itself could have a deterministic explanation. We review why any such attempted deterministic underpinning for quantum statistics would run into immediate conflict with quantum indeterminacy and the noncommutativity upon which the latter is based. Some cosmological implications are briefly explored.
