    $\begingroup$ It doesn't SOLVE the EPR paradox -- it doesn't resolve the factors EPR had a problem with -- what the Bell's Theorem experiments instead do is verifies that, whatever problems EPR thought existed in the QM view of entangled photons measurements, those problems are a feature of reality, and not just of QM. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 14, 2022 at 15:04
  • $\begingroup$ To put it another way: EPR's problem with QM was that it said that unmeasured properties of these particles are indeterminate prior to measurement, and that creates issues with entanglement. The experiments we have around bell's theorem come out on QM's side of that, confirming that there's no way these properties (spin for example) could have had definite values prior to measurement. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 14, 2022 at 15:04
