“…15 In fact, I think one philosophical consequence of the methods for inferring causal direction discussed in (Woodward, 2022) is to pose yet another difficulty for such approaches. By employing statistical independence conditions like CSI and VRI, one can ground a causal asymmetry between states of classical or quantum systems related by time-symmetric dynamical laws (Janzing et al, 2016;Williams, 2022). As illustrated above, there is nothing necessarily emergent or non-fundamental about these statistical asymmetries.…”

“…This is sufficient to account for all "fundamental" dynamical evolutions of classical mechanics and for unitary evolution in quantum theories. For simplicity I will stick to the context of classical statistical mechanics, but see (Williams, 2022) for discussion of how some of the themes here apply to quantum states related by unitary dynamical evolution.…”

“…22 The principle of independent mechanisms is also universally assumed to hold in physics and has been put to use in classical and quantum physics for multiple purposes (e.g., Maudlin, 2007, pp. 130-35;Janzing et al, 2016;Williams, 2022a).…”
