It's also a valid interpretation up to now. The measurement problem is unsolved not because we have no idea how to solve it, but because we have too many solutions and don't know who is right until more experiments are done. | |

We can state that the observer gets entangled with the quantum system without any special interpretation — just shifting point of view to that of another observer, which observes the original one. | |
