there is no one alive or dead who has more thoroughly grokked quantum mechanics than feynman

But that doesn't make his work truth or reality. We've also been told that einstein was a genius, but he stood on the shoulders of giants that did not belong to the tribe. Same with feynman. I don't regard either of these jews to be the pinnacle of quantum mechanics or anything else for that matter.
you don't need to be told about feynman, you can directly read his works and even some videos of his lectures. if you can find a better authority on quantum mechanics, that's cool. i've never seen one.
