The wiki summary, quoted here, turns Einstein’s “I would feel sorry for the good Lord” into “I would feel sorry for [the experimenter]”. Surely this is just a mistake? Einstein was saying: if God didn’t have the wit to make the universe work according to this theory, then so much the worse for God. (The usual disclaimers about Einstein’s use of the word “God” apply here, of course.)
