Careful. Tons of grifters and magical thinkers claim that their pseudoscientific nonsense is backed by quantum mechanics for that very reason (hardly anybody on the planet understands it). It's not.

So when someone says, "the philosophical side" when referring to quantum mechanics, forgive me if my woo-radar goes off...

That's understandable. The difference is, that most of the people who say that some stuff is backed by quantum physics don't even know the basics.
