Until recently Jeffrey Bub and Itamar Pitowsky, in the framework of an information-theoretic view of quantum mechanics, claimed first that to the measurement problem in its ordinary formulation there correspond in effect two measurement problems (simply called the big and the small measurement problems), with a different degree of relevance and, second, that the analysis of a quantum measurement is a problem only if other assumptions – taken by Pitowsky and Bub to be unnecessary ‘dogmas’ – are assumed. Here I critically discuss this unconventional stance on the measurement problem and argue that the Bub-Pitowsky arguments are inconclusive, mainly because they rely on an unwarranted extension to the quantum realm of a distinction concerning the foundations of special relativity which is in itself rather controversial.

直到最近，Jeffrey Bub 和 Itamar Pitowsky 在量子力学的信息论观点的框架内，首先声称对于其普通公式中的测量问题，实际上对应于两个测量问题（简称为大和小）测量问题），具有不同程度的相关性，其次，只有在其他假设（被 Pitowsky 和 ​​Bub 认为是不必要的“教条”）被假设的情况下，量子测量的分析才是一个问题。在这里，我批判性地讨论了这种在测量问题上的非常规立场，并认为 Bub-Pitowsky 的论点是不确定的，主要是因为它们依赖于对狭义相对论基础的区分对量子领域的无根据的扩展，而狭义相对论的基础本身就颇具争议。
