Abstract
From the perspective of orthodox quantum theory, no meaning can be ass igned to the notion of the ''slit'' through which the atom passed in t he experiments under discussion in this paper. From a Bohmian perspect ive this notion does have meaning. Moreover, when we compare the answe r provided by BM with the answer provided, not by orthodox quantum the ory, but by a naive, largely incoherent operationalism, we obtain diff erent answers. So what?
