It’s like watching a person open an empty box, close it, and open it again hoping there’s something in there this time. Over and over again.

ok but what if there is a hypothetical cat in the box which may be considered simultaneously both alive and dead, while it is unobserved in a closed box, as a result of its fate being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur? You need to open the box to see if it is alive or dead
