  ABSTRACT: Quantum mechanics (QM) is an extremely successful theory; however, there is still no consensus regarding its interpretation. Among the controversies, the quantum classical transitions are the outstanding questions. In this paper, starting from measurement theory, we discuss the role that the precision limit for observation plays in QM and attempt to lubricate the relationship between the precision limit and some unique characters and nature of QM. By reviewing Bohmian mechanics, one of the nonlocal hidden variable theories, we discuss the possibility of restoring determinism in QM. We conclude that it is the existence of the precision limit that makes it impossible to restore determinism in QM, and it is the root that makes QM different from classical physics. Finally, the boundary between the so-called classical and quantum worlds is discussed. We hope these philosophical arguments can provide a kind of epistemic understanding for QM.
