    “Detecting” equals “interaction” in this context. You can’t detect them without detecting them.

      Although, given some further thought, isn’t the double-slit experiment being discussed here sort of demonstrative of a “detection” without detection, i.e. the wave pattern vs. the particle pattern emerging after “detection/measurement/interaction”? Or am I misunderstanding it?

      Is there another way they operate/appear outside of the wave-particle that eludes observation?
