Why engineers are right to avoid the quantum reality offered by the orthodox theory? [point of view]

We are currently in the middle of a second quantum revolution where the rules discovered a century ago to understand the quantum world are being applied to develop new quantum technologies [1] . Yet, most of the understanding of quantum physics is developed from the orthodox (also known as the Copenhagen) interpretation of the quantum phenomena [2] , [3] . However, the orthodox theory has important difficulties in providing an intuitive view of quantum technologies because it states that a quantum object has only real properties when it is measured by an observer. This view of the reality of quantum objects is unnatural to engineers and, thus, is ignored by them when analyzing their realworld devices. What is natural to engineers is to imagine that the reality of an object (their properties) is independent of whether the object is measured or not.
