    Fair - it’s not that we know it’s not: it’s that we don’t know that it is.

    Probabilistic is equally likely as deterministic - we’ve found absolutely nothing disproving probabilistic models. We’ve only found reinforcement for those models.

    It’s unintuitive to humans so of course we don’t want to believe it. It remains to be seen if it’s true.

      Its worth mentioning that certain mainstream interpretations are also concretely deterministic. For example many worlds is actually a deterministic interpretation, the multiverse is deterministic, your particular branch simply appears probabilistic. Much more deterministic is Bohmian mechanics. Copenhagen interpretation, however, maintains randomness.
