Abstract

In a recent preprint Gill and Lambare, criticize our paper published in Frontiers in Physics. Their criticism is unfounded and misleading. They define a probabilistic coupling, in which BI-CHSH hold for all finite samples. It does not mean, that BI-CHSH hold in our model, in which four incompatible experiments are described by setting dependent random variables implemented on 4 disjoint dedicated probability spaces. A joint probability distribution of these random variables does not exist and may not be used to derive inequalities. Moreover, their probabilistic coupling is useless, for a subsequent contextual model, which we construct to describe final data from Bell tests and to explain, in a locally causal way, the reported violations of inequalities and apparent violations of no-signaling. Neither quantum probabilistic model of an ideal EPRB experiment nor local realistic and stochastic hidden variable models may explain reported non-signaling Therefore; it is obvious that our model extends the set of probability distributions of possible measurements allowed in the standard hidden variable models. Gill and Lambare seem not understand , the main message of our paper, that the violation of BI-CHSH and Eberhard inequalities by finite samples in Bell Tests, no matter how well these tests are designed and performed, does not allow for doubt regarding the existence of objective external physical reality and causal locality in Nature. Our contextual model does not want to circumvent Bell Theorem. Therefore the title of Gill and Lambare paper and the conclusion: Kupczynski's escape route for local realism is not available are misleading and have nothing to do with the content and conclusions of our paper.
