I disagree.

Ask 10 random people to read the phrase "links them so that changes in one affect the other", without any other disclaimers attached.

I bet some of them will think that means you can change A and see the change on B.

It's not good wording.

The wording is fine. Making people realize that a FTL effect is happening is more important than telling them that due to the no-cloning theorem we can’t directly observe it.

1. Observing the event or trying to clone entire states isn't what anyone was worried about. It's the idea that you could set even one bit to measure later (which is trivial to do with a normal particle).

2. There's no tradeoff here. "more important" doesn't matter. It's easy to make a sentence that states an FTL effect occurs and that data can't be sent.

But a type of non-classical data can be sent. See quantum pseudo telepathy.
