How Does the Inverse Bell Theorem Challenge Quantum Measurement Predictions?

if we consider a separable measurement operator $$(A+A')\otimes (B-B')$$ then quantum mechanics predict the result is in [-2;2]

Whereas going to classical results would give in [-4;4]

This could indicate that going from measurement operator in the quantum realm to measurement results is maybe more complicated than just retranscripting the terms ?

jk22, your post is not very coherent

Measurement operator represents measurements and in Bell test two measurement angles are always considered independent.
But measured pair of particles can be in separable or entangled state.

Classical results can't give such values for CHSH inequality. Correlation values in inequality are not just arbitrary numbers but maximum numbers you can get when using shared initial variable for particle pair.
 
Well this operator is not Chsh but it shows a discrepancy between eigenvalues and the measurement results since the value of each operator A,A',B,B' is in {-1;1} whereas if i consider the operators like in a bell test they cannot reach such eigenvalues but not in general this is true my post is not very precise.

I read Hanbury Brown and Twiss's experiment is using one beam but split into two to test their correlation. It said the traditional correlation test were using two beams........ This confused me, sorry. All the correlation tests I learnt such as Stern-Gerlash are using one beam? (Sorry if I am wrong) I was also told traditional interferometers are concerning about amplitude but Hanbury Brown and Twiss were concerning about intensity? Isn't the square of amplitude is the intensity? Please...
I am not sure if this belongs in the biology section, but it appears more of a quantum physics question. Mike Wiest, Associate Professor of Neuroscience at Wellesley College in the US. In 2024 he published the results of an experiment on anaesthesia which purported to point to a role of quantum processes in consciousness; here is a popular exposition: https://neurosciencenews.com/quantum-process-consciousness-27624/ As my expertise in neuroscience doesn't reach up to an ant's ear...
