I'm not sure you can really blame pop science - the concept seems to be there in the Copenhagen Interpretation eg. see point 4 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copenhagen_interpretation#Prin... I think one of the appeals to actual physicists who do experiments is that is how things are usually set up - there's some equipment that makes a measurement and the Schrödinger equation stuff till collapse thing gives the correct result for what is observed. Obviously the universe got on ok for billions of years before physicists evolved so it's a simplification of reality. |
