And you are irritated because you miss the point.
The point is that you are objecting to certain theories in quantum physics, because they are very inconsistent with what you ordinarily perceive reality to be.
Similarly, a 4-year-old may well object to the idea of invisible radio waves or invisible bacteria, because they are very inconsistent with what he ordinarily perceives reality to be.
Yet presumably you do not object to the idea of radio waves or bacteria. You do not doubt radio waves or bacteria. Why?
Because you have learned from science about radio waves and bacteria. You accept this idea. You cannot see, hear or feel radio waves or bacteria. At some point you had considered the idea, and you came to accept them.
Why is then that when science talks about the CCC theory; the Bohm interpretation; or the Many Worlds theory, you run away and say, "Don't talk about it! I don't want to hear the theories! I won't consider! Do you REALLY believe that the chair isn't there?!"
How is your reasoning different from someone who says:
"Don't talk about radio waves! I don't want to hear about bacteria! I won't consider! Do you REALLY believe that there are invisible living things in the air right now?!"
