Not this bothers me about QM, but the collapse of
wave function: two entangled photons where the
detection of A determine the outcome of B: this, if
really happens,

It does. It does FTL... and near as we can measure,
instantaneously.


Now we got to the point:

premise:
Along path A a string of entangled photons is detected
indipendently, we register a sequel of outcomes.
After many attempts the statistic fits the wave function
probability distribution as expected.

Along path B a string of entangled photons is detected,
many times, and this, also, fits the expected statistic.
......

the checking:

Now along path A a sequel of photons is detected
and registered; the sequel of path B, detected afterwards
some distance away, results anchored to the sequel of
photons A.

And of course viceversa: if we detect along path B we
determine the outcome of path A.

And this all the times we try.

conclusion:

Our immediate conclusion must be that the sequel of
photons A and the sequel of photons B were generated
as such from the common source.

If you say instead, that is the act of measurement on
A that determine immediately (and a posteriori) the
outcome of B, you exclude that they were prefixed from
the moment of emission, then you have to prove it.

What is the prove that the linking takes place after the
measurement and not simply (a priori) from the
common source ??????????

I apologize for the redundancy and thanks for the attention.

I wish you had read what I wrote below. Because you again make
the same mistake.

Two streams of entangled particles, sent "left" are spin up, sent
"right" are spin down. The "left" stream is passed into a
shielded, distant device to flip the spin on the particle stream
contained within it. Far away in the "right" stream, for no
apparent reason, and only when / if the "left" stream is flipped,
the other does too.

ps. on the spacetime not rilevant we can discuss after we
settle the above question.

It is very relevant, since you assume "separation", "difference",
and "isolation" when there *is* none for quantum effects.

then there must be a hidden cause that links the
two since the generation of the two entangled
photons, the detection of one of the two should not
have effect on the other aside to show how the
entanglement has fixed the two from the begin.

I would submit the "hidden cause" is our forgetting the wave
nature of all quantum objects. Because we assume we have
"separated" the two objects, this bizarre behavior springs up.
Spacetime is only a problem for macroscopic systems... quantum
objects don't care for / about spacetime. "Separation" is
just
us measuring ourselves again, beda.
