Mar 26	comment	Why should multiple versions of a weak measurement preclude it from being a measurement of intrinsic properties of some system So suppose we conclude that what is measured in weak measurement is some combined property of the system of interest and the meter system. Is Parrott's criticism ultimately that one could never consistently devise a protocol for extracting only the information about the system of interest, whether that protocol be setting $\rho$ to 0, or knowing $\rho$ and doing some mathematical manipulation of the data? If that is the case, I am still not certain about what reasoning leads one to that conclusion. If it is not the case, then isn't weak measurement a valid measurement?
