No nonlocal advantage of quantum coherence beyond quantum instrumentality

Abstract

Recently, it was shown that quantum steerability is stronger than the bound set by the instrumental causal network. This implies, quantum instrumentality cannot simulate EPR-nonlocal correlations completely. In contrast, here we show that quantum instrumentality can indeed simulate EPR correlations completely and uniquely if viewed from the perspective of NAQC. Implication of our result is that the entire set of EPR-correlations can be explained by the LHS model in the instrumental causal background if viewed from the perspective of NAQC.
