Feels like a shower thought, but I seriously want to know if there are any implications, because it seems like identical twins are able to sense, understand, and almost be extensions of each other - finish each other's sentences/thoughts. Some even claim to be able to sense their twin when they're separate. Hard to believe, but at all possible?

Thanks, been studying a bit about entanglement, super determinism and all that. I thought it was an interesting thought about the twins but I realized it wasn't likely for the reasons you gave. It's almost like distance between objects is the weird part about our universe, not it's quantum material, thus why the entanglement seems strange at a distance. The more I study about it, the more that our 3 dimensions isn't fundamental, but only a result of wave collapse - this is why the photon doesn't seem to care how much we try and passively manipulate it, only how it's finally collapsed. Like how qubits can only exist in their uncertain phase for 5 secs - it's hard to keep it from interacting/collapsing. Perhaps antimatter annihilates with our matter because of how differently the two matter types collapse their particles from each other?  It's all so interesting...
