4. Critiquing Mystifying Analogies: The Case of "Schrödinger's Cat"

The "Schrödinger's cat" thought experiment analogizes microscopic quantum superposition to a macroscopic cat being "both dead and alive." This analogy is physically erroneous [6, 7]:

(1) Dimensional Confusion: A cat is a macroscopic, high-dimensional object whose state is determined by classical statistics; quantum superposition is the dynamic coexistence of low-dimensional vortex structures. They belong to different hierarchical levels.

(2) Lack of Physical Mechanism: This analogy ignores the physical substance of the decoherence process and environmental interaction, using a macroscopic paradox to obscure the topological mechanisms of microscopic dynamics.

(3) Philosophical Misguidance: Transforming a physical problem into a consciousness-dependent philosophical puzzle diverts research away from realism [7].

The harm of mystifying analogies lies in shifting physics from structural description to a semantic game, hindering deep exploration into the nature of quantum phenomena.

5. The Path to Rational Reconstruction in Physics

To avoid the trap of mystification, physics should:

(1) Clarify Geometric Foundations: Any physical theory should define the geometric form and motion patterns of its objects.

(2) Establish Hierarchical Theories: Distinguish the behavioral laws of matter at different scales and dimensions, prohibiting the misuse of concepts across hierarchical levels.

(3) Return to Physical Reality: As exemplified by Topological Vortex Theory, map mathematical objects to physical entities, endowing theories with constructability and intuitiveness [3].

(4) Reject Philosophical Substitution: Physical problems should be solved through physical mechanisms, not by resorting to observer consciousness or many-worlds hypotheses [5, 7].
