Nicely played, there.

I would have thought that solving for superposition and collapse of Schrodinger’s wavy probabilistic cat equations was central to designing quantum computers, but there seems to be many different layers of analysis needed to fully apprehend these novel machines (and the programs they may run). At any rate, getting NP-hard optimizations performed efficiently will be a great outcome of this tech. Just today, I was reading about how “Field-Programmable Qubit Arrays (FPQAs)” might become a thing … but given the uncertainty principles that govern the quantum world, we might never know, even if it does! ;^}

Yes. It doesn’t scale perfectly. I don’t know anything that does.

Is that right? Interesting article, thank you.
