The Science of Ken and Cart
The power of the science of Ken and Cart is that it expresses the essence of quantum systems without ever committing to quantum theory's full machinery. The copiability of specific properties, the impossibility of copying others, and reversibility are general features about which we can talk without committing to quantum Theory explicitly. They provide profound connections between intuitively very distant patches of the fabric of reality. My bet is that even if quantum theory eventually gets wiped away, the counterfactual information theoretic structure will remain because it has deeper foundations than quantum theory itself.
