Abstract

The paper “Physics without determinism: Alternative interpretations of classical physics” [Phys. Rev. A 100, 062107 (2019)] defines finite information quantities (FIQ). A FIQ expresses the available information about the value of a physical quantity. We show that a change in the measurement unit does not preserve the information carried by a FIQ and therefore that the definition provided in the paper is not complete.
