The double-slit experiment is a cornerstone of quantum physics. If our understanding of it were to change, it could upend the entire foundation of physics.

This video doesn't explain the topic very clearly—it doesn't shed much light on it. 🙂 So, it feels more like an argument over semantics.
Einstein believed that quantum physics describes systems probabilistically because of hidden variables that we are unable to perceive. Personally, I think it's quite plausible that events occur on such an infinitesimal scale that they're simply beyond our ability to detect. In this case, we have to rely on theory instead of experimentation.
