I agree that too much importance is lain on the HUP. Do to this indulgance,
many misunderstandings proliferate among scientists and hobbyists on issues
involving the HUP. However, the HUP is not bypassable. No matter how
accurate equipment becomes, there will always be a limit to how precise a
measurement can be when certain other measurements are made. That doesn't
mean that you cannot infer some things based on the information you can get,
but it does limit your ability to prove those inferences directly in
measurement.
