sunny miller re: Schrödinger's cat is about possibilities & probabilities
I think it relates to the idea that Tony's existence is a constant state of the possibility of being dead. If he is not whacked in the present moment, it might very well happen in the next. (Same is true, in varying degrees for all of us!) In the blackout moment, which we can't observe, we don't know what the outcome is. He might be dead. If he's not dead, he might be dead 5 minutes later. As far as meaning goes, it is as Livia's famous last words stated "A Big Nothing."
Apologies if this has already been addressed.
