Did it actually help people understand it?

In my experience most laymen’s explanation involve knowledge of the word superposition but not any clarity on what it is and they treat the cat in the box as a real cat

Every once in a while someone seems to understand it but that seem mostly limited to people who had to take a class on quantum/ statistical mechanics
