   Consider, for example, Schaefer's "A response to Carl Helrich".   
      
   https://www.zygonjournal.org/article/id/13448/#!   
      
   https://philpapers.org/rec/SCHART-8   
      
   "As to the power of authority, when Helrich can quote Max Born for the   
   metaphysical stance that “the wavefunction itself has no physical mean-   
   ing” (p. 554), Werner Heisenberg ([1958] 1962) can be quoted for the   
   opposite metaphysical stance."   
      
      
   Then, both of those can be put to the side, explaining both, as one.
