How do you overcome the fact that local realistic theories are shown
not to be able to reproduce the predictions of QM? Or is this what you
mean by "very close"? Without entanglement, I'd say that it's not close
enough. In fact, it has been shown already that one can derive many
of the counterintuitive features of QM from a classical description.
