No Prior Knowledge About Coin Position Exists.

Suppose, a passerby dies without telling anyone whaere the coin is. Or suppose, a random numer generator inside a robot tells the robot where to plant a coin. Or a robot should first flip a coin to decide where to plant it (and after planting a coin a robot self-destroys).

So, the only info we have is that a coin (or a photon in modern experiment) HAS to be in one of the holes.

Psi function amplitude was in 71% + 71% state before (so, square is 50% + 50%), and then suddenly, when we detected the coin the psi function superluminally collapsed into 0% + 100% state.

Therefore, superluminal travel and information exchange (= communication) is just around the corner?

Or is it?
