Arguing that the orthodox quantum mechanics (QM) in its statistical interpretation is sufficient to plainly explain long distance correlations between entangled particles without resorting to exotic hypotheses such as nonlocality / “spooky actions” and the like. The critical element here is the recognition of a difference between languages and notions of classical mechanics (CM) and QM: QM is a statistical phenomenology, not describing individual particles, but rather their large congregations / collectives – quantum ensembles. In doing so, QM operates with complex valued distribution functions – wave functions (WFs) – built in a full compliance with conservation laws as a superposition of partial components explicitly preserving pertinent dynamics variables. Further, in contrast to a popular misconception an entanglement is to no extent an exotic phenomenon: on the contrary, it has been routinely emerging in QM’s almost centennial treatment of molecular, atomic, nuclear and elementary particle physics and never caused the need for a “supernatural” nonlocality. Relatedly, the very same CM-QM language incompatibility results in seemingly paradoxical features of a two-slit diffraction and similar experiments. Further, we discuss in some detail the distributional interpretation of wave functions and their superposition as well as “virtual” vs “real” notions in QM along with their manifestation in measuring processes. Finally, we address the genesis and evolution of wave-particle duality (WPD) and potential perspectives into its future developments.
