((1))Aha, so now entanglement exists

((2))As for Schor's algorithm, it may be slow, but then so was the DFT algorithm before Lanczos.

((3))But Schor made a correct point, and it was proven to work.
(1) - shows that you have a problem with English and logic. The "entanglement" is impossible and it does not exist, since its existence would violate the laws of Nature.

(2) The whole Shor's algorithm claim to the fame is, that a device with QUAC properties would require O(N**p) operation time for factoring of a large integer. It is a crap, since it would require at least 2**N times more time.

(3) There is no correct point made by Shor or any other of QUAC kooks
