That sounds right to me, and I agree that this is sometimes explained badly.
Are you saying that this explains the perceived asymmetry between position and momentum? I don’t see how that’s the case, you could say exactly the same thing in the dual perspective (to get a precise momentum, you need to “sum up” lots of different position eigenstates).
If you were making a different point that went over my head, could you elaborate?
I doubt that I understand this very well. I thought there was a chance I might help and also a chance that I would be so obviously wrong that I would learn something.
