An engineer takes his expensive entanglement-powered car to a quantum mechanic and says, "My car is broken, and I have to be at a meeting in two hours. It's a matter of life and death."
The quantum mechanic says, "No problem. That'll be $500. Come back in an hour."
The engineer returns in an hour and asks the quantum mechanic, "Is my car fixed?"
The quantum mechanic says, "It is both fixed and not fixed."
Frustrated, the engineer says, "This is the most advanced car in the world, and lives depend on me attending this meeting! Don't you understand the gravity of the situation?"
And the quantum mechanic says, "No."
