It's a vector. I can be a a superposition just like a vector from
Atlanta to New York is a superposition of a North vector and a East vector.

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 --
