If you read all the way to the end, de Broglie-Bohm is discussed. I think the point is that the simpler, original pilot wave theory, which was never fully nailed down, is disproven.

correct, and the Broglie-Bohm uses an abstract amplitude wave just like copenhagen - the only difference is in copenhagen the result auto-magically appears, in-toto, when it is "measured" (¿), and in Broglie-Bohm the particle really exists the whole time and travels the whole path mapped out by what the abstract amplitude wave specified.
