But evidently, based on the behaviors that we can see (such as transition lines of atoms), we can arrive at a theory whose mathematical structure describes forms that don't fit into the classical spacetime world. So it's reasonable to suppose that QM is at least a theory of the structure of those potentialities, even if we can't observe their material nature -- or even if they don't possess a material nature. -This is what Einstein meant when he talked about the surprising effectiveness of mathematics to describe reality. Apparently Nature is logical at her core, even if we can't directly observe those inner workings. But mathematical reasoning can somehow access it. I discuss this in my book as well.
