The probability is for an electron being in that given space when we look. For until we look, definite position is not a property that an electon has.

Quantum theory would have us say that there is no definite state until it is measured. QT does not place a limit on our ability to know the state of a system, rather QT tells us that reality is fundamentally different to what it is that we percieve.

Seems to me that we are just not seeing an influence causing an actually well defined path in space, making this an antinomy?
Could you please link what you refer to as "
so from reading terms Arjen has supplemented on the paradoxes thread". I looked but I could not find.
This "

Bohr-Einstein debates - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia were about. Alas, Einstein did not see the experimental evidence that would favour nonlocality.
