But also the whole state vs. op based CRDT dichotomy is replicated in QM and QFT. For example you can solve for the hydrogen atom by considering how your operations apply to states (=wave functions) or completely ignore the wave function and get the energy levels just by thinking about the operations in themselves - though if your interest is in where an electron might be at a particular time you might have to cash out your operators by computing an actual state.
