Abstract

A classical fluid splitter produces the same patterns of energy redistribution as a Stern-Gerlach quantum device, with rotationally invariant coefficients of correlation between molecular paths. Alternative settings express a cosine squared relationship, leading to Tsirelson-type Bell violations with outcome independence. This result confirms the Correspondence Principle of quantum mechanics, where individual detection events express system-level properties according to Born's Rule. Kochen-Specker contextuality and Bell Locality are not formally contradicted, but their interpretation is in question. Current definitions of Local Realism are limited to intrinsic particle properties. In contrast, quantum-like correlations require the acknowledgement of ensemble effects on dynamically inseparable entities, even when those entities are observed one at a time.
