What are "the individual components of the wave function"? They are a mathematical construction. The wave function can be decomposed in many (and infinity of) ways. Why is one decomposition chosen and not another? Or are all the decompositions equally "(un)real"? The issue is not so simple and it's related to the "mysteriousness" of the first part.
