Basic Difference Between Classical and Modern Physics

This is the first in a sequence of posts starting from the previous post asking if Newtonian Mechanics NM + Maxwellian Electromagnetics EM as classical physics describing all of the macroscopic world, can also explain the world of modern physics including General Relativity GR describing the macro-macroscopic world and Quantum Mechanics QM/Standard Model describing the microscopic world? 

Let us thus ask if NM+EM can also describe the microscopic world, leaving for now out the question if NM really needs an extension to GR for macro-macroscopics. 

We then add RealQM to the picture as a new form of quantum mechanics formulated within classical physics. RealQM then emerges as a part of classical physics describing microscopics of molecules, atoms, nuclei and electrons in classical continuum mechanical terms. This not modern physics as classical physics, but modern physics as an extension of classical physics to microscopics.

In RealQM individuality therefore plays the same role in microscopics as in macroscopics, where occupancy of a certain region in space and time identifies different components in classical continuum mechanical terms. This is a minimal unique signature, which is complemented by mass and charge.

In QM individuality is lost. Electrons do not occupy different regions in space and time because they do not have any space-filling quality, only appear as abstract probabilities without individuality and real physical presence. 

RealQM has an interpretation as physics in the same sense as Maxwell's equations for electromagnetics or Navier-Stokes equations for fluids.

No satisfactory interpretation of QM has been found, despite hard work by an army of sharp physicist minds for 100 years. The logical conclusion can only be that QM is not physics. 

Despite the lack of individuality in QM, modern physicists speak about electrons orbiting nuclei or filling orbitals in space as if they have individuality, causing much confusion for students and the general public. 

In the Standard Model electrons are interacting by exchanging (virtual) photons depicted as Feynman diagrams such as:

It is hard to not see that here electrons can be identified by left-right, but that is not what you are supposed to see. There is no left electron and no right electron, just two interacting electrons jumping around with presence nowhere and everywhere. The big trouble with the Standard Model is that without individuality self-interaction is possible, which creates infinities requiring renormalisation to be eliminated however without physics, adding to confusion for students and the general public. 

If politicians allocating tax money to Particle Colliders supposed to verify the Standard Model, can understand the meaning of the Standard Model, more or less, they can decide to cut financing because the model does not make sense to them. If they or the general public cannot understand, cutting funding can be more difficult.
