Abstract

Paw{\l}owski and Winter's hyperbit theory, proposed in 2012, presented itself as an alternative to quantum theory, suggesting novel ways of redefining entanglement and classical communication paradigms. This research undertakes a meticulous reevaluation of hyperbit theory, uncovering significant operational constraints that question its equivalence with quantum mechanics. Crucially, the supposition that hyperbit theory and quantum theory are equivalent relies on the receiver having unattainable additional knowledge about the sender's laboratory, indicating that the work by Pawlowski and Winter is incorrect. This study accentuates the constraints of hyperbits in information processing and sheds light on the superiority of quantum communication, thereby advancing the investigation at the intersection of classical and quantum communication.
