It is argued that the nonlocality without entanglement discovered quite rec
ently by Bennett ct nl. [Phys. Rev. A 59, 1070 (1999)] should rather be int
erpreted as the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox without entanglement. It wo
uld be a true demonstration of nonlocality without entanglement if one knew
that quantum mechanics provides the best possible means for extracting inf
ormation from a physical system, i.e., that it is "informationally complete
.'' [S1050-2947(99)00410-2].
