The explanation "they just happened to be already be biased to agree with it, or inclined because of history to be more aware of it than Buddhism" doesn't hold up, as western scholars had already been studying Hindusim and Buddhism for over a century by then; and Shrodinger in his books such as 'What is Life?' write pretty extensively about how he considers the teachings of Advaita Vedanta and what it says about consciousness to be in agreement with Quantum Mechanics; he writes about it from the perspective of someone who had thought deeply and carefully about how it aligned with QM, it's not just offhand observations and throwaway comments about a topic he didn't know well or was only agreeing with because of exterior circumstances

>western scholars couldn't understand Buddhism until western process philosophy recommenced in the 21st century
lol if you really are dumb enough to think this unironically
