No. Maybe 50+ years ago when Einstein was digging his heels in about it, but not since the data started coming in confirming it.
QM is the most precisely confirmed theory ever put forth by humans. Nothing new can change what data we already have. Our current theory explains the data up to some astounding limits. Whatever new explanations need to preserve the accuracy of our current explanations, in order to match the data.
IDK if I followed you, but it's more like QM says there are 52 cards in the deck, and current data indicates there are 52 +/- 10^-15 cards in the deck. We're hoping to have that pinned down to 52 +/- 10^-18 in the coming years, as technology develops.
