Exact pure-state overlap readout would allow superluminal signalling
ID: exact-pure-state-overlap-readout-would-allow-superluminal-signalling
With a fixed reference , exact overlap readout on Bob's remotely prepared state distinguishes the computational basis from the diagonal basis in one use, by the displayed disjoint squared-overlap sets. This would reveal Alice's spacelike basis choice. The argument rules out even deterministic exact overlap magnitude, avoiding the additional unphysical global-phase dependence of a raw complex inner product.
