• B) They don't differ in any essential way-- both uncertainties are "inherent in nature" and cannot be removed by additional information.
• C) With sufficient information, a coin flip's outcome can be predicted, but no amount of information can remove quantum uncertainties.
• D) With sufficient information, quantum uncertainties can be removed, but no amount of information can make a coin flip predictable.
• E) They don't differ in any essential way-- both are a consequence of the observer's insufficient information and can be removed by obtaining additional information.
