“Like fairy floss in a spring shower, the quantum state of any object is a hazy smear of possibility at risk of melting into reality moments after creation. Electromagnetic waves of radiation and the thermal bumping-and-grinding of moving particles quickly reduces the quantum significance into decoherence if it isn't protected in some way.

Shielding quantum states inside computers is one thing. Sending a single photon through optical fibers humming with bank transactions, cat videos, and text messages while protecting its quantum state is far more daunting. You might as well cast your quantum fairy floss into the Mississippi and hope it tastes as good at the end.”
