You're describing a Hidden Variable Theory, which does not work https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden-variable_theory

Local hidden variable theories are ruled out by Bell's Theorem. Not hidden variable theories in general. I realise GP was describing a local HVT, but it's still an important distinction.

Sure it can. Bell's theorem implies you can have locality or hidden variables, but not both. de Broglie-Bohm is an example of a non-local hidden-variable theory.
