- The devastating effects of the measurement operation in microphysics usually make it necessary to reprepare the system after each measurement or to use many identical systems similarly prepared, but this technicality need not concern us here.

- For the case of the so‐called elementary particles, Margenau (op. cit.) has suggested the etymologically sensible term onta.
