contents Five objections to the conventional arguments underlying the EPR \enquote{paradox} are presented. It is shown that for entangled subsystems the formation of the post-measurement state necessarily involves local interactions affecting both subsystems, contradicting standard EPR assumptions. Correlations between measurements by remote apparatuses are shown to be consistent with relativistic principles. For entangled eigenstates of total momentum or total spin, eliminating redundant degrees of freedom in analogy with generalized Hamiltonian dynamics prevents the emergence of the EPR \enquote{paradox}. A different paradox is identified for a quantum charged particle, whose electric field is shown to be determined by potential configurations encoded in the quantum state rather than by actual measurement events.
