In order to create a superposition state, quantum particles must be cooled to just above absolute zero. Innsbruck physicists have now succeeded in realizing “hot Schrödinger cats” - which are, of course, still very cold

In a magazine article [1] on problems and progress in quantum field theory, Wood writes of Feynman path integrals, “No known mathematical procedure can meaningfully average an infinite number of objects covering an infinite expanse of space in general. The path integral is more of a physics philosophy than an exact mathematical recipe.”
This article [2] provides a method for averaging an arbitrary collection of objects; however, the average can be any number in the extension of the range of these objects. (Note, an arbitrary collection of these objects is a function.)
Question: Suppose anything meaningful has applications in quantum field theory. Is there a way to meaningfully choose a unique, finite average of a function whose graph matches the description in Wood's quote?

Quantum Teleportation Achieved Over Internet For The First Time
A quantum state of light was successfully teleported through more than 30 kilometers (around 18 miles) of fiber optic cable amid a torrent of internet traffic – a feat of engineering once considered impossible.

Can cells break the laws of thermodynamics?
Our preprint investigates the current scientific controversy. Using our nanosensor, we addressed unexpected artifacts and measured temperature with record accuracy inside cells.

The remarkable work from P. Maurer's lab also independently reports similar artifacts.
