Maybe the quantum is relative to the bigger structure that it is a part of. The vibrations in a molecule does not affect the quantum (since the quantum is perfect relative to the molecule, it just follows the vibration as if it was still). Do the energy of a atom in any way affect the quantum? If not, then it is supported by this since the vibrations or any way of energy in a atom is in a perfect relationship with the quantum (so that the quantum follows any action as if it didn't perform any at all). As such the quantum world is a world of it's own, but not seperate from the bigger world, since it is perfectly relative to it and can affect the "host" by it's own force and not depending nor influenced by the outside forces. Heureka?
The energy of an atom *is* the energy of its constituent quanta. Quantum and relativistic mechanics apply across all scales, but the effects of the former are negligible on very large scales, and the effects of the latter are negligible on very small scales. There isn't actually a "quantum world," so to speak.
A quanta is a "period" of light, where the light cannot be divided without breaking the period, that is "one quanta of light" (that is how I came to understand it). The quantum world, however, is the world of the very very small. I argue that when things get that small, (as in the architecture of the atom) then what is much bigger (like a molecule) or perhaps the atom itself, doesn't effect the world of the very small, since the world of the very small (quantum world) is moving perfectly relative to the bigger world. So when a molecule vibrates, this doesn't affect the quantum world, since it vibrates in perfect harmony with it. Thus the quantum world doesn't move when a molecule moves, but exists in a world of it's own (perfectly relative to the bigger world). If we follow that idea we get: 1; that there is no seperation in the quantum world, but only relative seperation because of the perfect relativity to the bigger world. (no need for "speed of light" limits). 2; when we measure the quantum world in any way, we measure only what is relative to the bigger world. Where in the quantum world in actuality everything is the same, and is what can be called as "absolute" simply because of it's perfect relativity. Therefor the measurement "collapses" the "anything" to an actuality of what it is perfect relative to the bigger world. 3; if we need to get to perfect relativity in bigger time then we may be able to get there too...probably resulting in the possibility for the particles to seem to move back and forth through time. It answers everything that seemed wrong with the quantum world, or at least it seems like that to me.
