Why did the teacher reprimand them for actually pondering her question?

The cat is a thought experiment to describe a concept in particle physics.
Read the wiki page.

It drives me nuts how often stuff from particle physics gets thrown around in pop culture with no grasp that it’s all analogy to introduce a higher level concept. I barely understand any of the higher level stuff, but I know it’s not useful outside that sphere.

Well~ it's interesting given that he, as the only observer within the box, is the only one knows that he's alive, but observers outside the box can't tell. At the same time, to be considered alive, does he need an external observer to acknowledge it? The definition of 'life' is also something that we humans arrived at arbitrarily, with plenty of things straddling the border between life and death. I guess that juxtaposition is ultimately where the series title comes from.

So minus the radiation and superposition aspects of the thought experiment, I actually think the analogy works a lot better here than how it's used in a lot of other contexts just because of the discussion about consciousness and observers.

Life or unlife is pretty much the same for what really matters.

If you think, therefore you are.

Everything else is just bloatware.

It didn't give much time to explain it but it fits in pretty well, to someone that only has a surface understanding. Schroedinger's cat say the cat is both alive and dead until observed, then it slips into one of the states. What about the cat? Can it not observe itself, or does it feel itself in a state of both alive and dead. That's probably the kind of idea the author wanted to put across.
