contents We show that in the operational setting of a two-agent, local operations, classical communication (LOCC) protocol, Alice and Bob cannot operationally distinguish monogamous entanglement from a topological identification of points in their respective local spacetimes, i.e. that ER = EPR can be recovered as an operational theorem. Our construction immediately implies that in this operational setting, the local topology of spacetime is observer-relative. It also provides a simple demonstration of the non-traversability of ER bridges. As our construction does not depend on an embedding geometry, it generalizes previous geometric approaches to ER = EPR.
