The Puzzle of Empty Bottle in Quantum Theory

We discuss an extremely simple effect of 'shadowing' where the very existence of the measuring apparatus deforms the evolution of quantum states even if the measurement is never preformed. In spite of strange intuitive aspects, it might be related to some recent doubts about the completeness of quantum theories.
