But if you set up exactly the same situation and measure it again, you will find the electron in a different location, often far outside any experimental uncertainty in your measurement. Repeated measurements will display a statistical distribution of locations that appears wavelike.

Since the goal of developing theories and models is to describe the real world, we need to understand how to make meaningful measurements that test our theories and models.
