I find the accepted interpretation of superposition in error, namely the 
conclusion that a system in such a state, is simultaneously in all states 
in its sum. For example, in the SG experiment, the UP / DOWN final states 
are defined by the orientation of the magnets. But here's the rub; we can 
do a transformation to any other basis set. So if the measured system is in 
some superposition, and is interpreted as being in those particular UP / 
DOWN states simulataneously, can't we say the system is ALSO in any other 
basis states obtained through a transformation from the measured states? 
Since these basis states are different, the standard interpretation of 
superposition implies the system is simultaneously in all basis states at 
the same time. AG
