We examine evaluations of the contributions of Matrix Mechanics and Max Born to the formulation of quantum mechanics from Heisenberg’s Helgoland paper of 1925 to Born’s Nobel Prize of 1954. We point out that the process of evaluation is continuing in the light of recent interpretations of the theory that deemphasize the importance of the wave function.

The Relational Quantum Mechanics (RQM) is an alternative interpretation of quantum mechanics that was proposed originally by C.~Rovelli. RQM can be seen as a logical completion and generalization of the Copenhagen (orthodox) interpretation but where the arbitrariness of Heisenberg’s quantum `shifty-split’ or `cut’, which is separating observed and observing subsystems, is taken more seriously. Unlike, the Copenhagen interpretation the cut is not confined to the macroscopic domain and the roles of observed and observing systems are relative and can be inverted. RQM is therefore a more symmetric and general approach.\\ Moreover, recently RQM has been criticized and assessed by various authors. The aim of the present comment is to give a short reply to the recent J.~Lawrence et al. article [arxiv: 2210.09025] that concerns RQM and the role of quantum contextuality.
