Copenhagen and Many-Worlds read the same quantum theory in very different ways. This guide compares their strengths, costs, and common misunderstandings.

The Copenhagen interpretation is often described as mystical, but its core is more disciplined: quantum theory predicts what can be observed, while measurement marks the point where probabilities become outcomes.
