Penrose (2004: 593):
I have not yet finished with the other puzzles presented to us by entanglement. Some of these have to do with the way that the measurement of an entangled system sits extremely uncomfortably with the requirements of relativity, since a measurement of one part of an entangled pair would seem to have to affect the other simultaneously which, as we have seen, is not a notion that we ought to countenance if we are to remain true to relativistic principles.

From the perspective of Systemic Functional Linguistic Theory, there is no inconsistency between the measurement of an entangled system and the requirements of relativity. This is because the measurement of an entangled system is the construal of simultaneous instances of the same interdependent quantum potential, and so concerns the relation between instance and potential, not the simultaneous effect of instance on instance, whereas relativity concerns the relation between instances and their spatiotemporal dimensions, not the relation between instance and potential.
