weird answers. It cannot be deterministic at least for any definition of deterministic I’ve ever encountered.

Quantum Physics is probabilistic and any interaction changes the outcome. So no “rebuilding” or “simulating” will ever work to the extent that a “deterministic” definition requires.

However for most everyday uses the probabilities are so close to 1, that you wont generally notice any difference.
