Quantum Weirdness No More

 If a light splitter and combiner introduce a 90o phase difference in the output beam(s),


In the last two 'blocked' cases, beams at 0o and 180o, and beams at 90o and 270o do not interfere and cancel as they are on spilt paths.  Beams at 180o and 270o phases are visible beyond the outputs of the splitter.  These outputs are at opposite phase to the other outputs of the splitter, but do not interfere and cancel with them because they are on different paths.

Not weird.
