        That’s not really Schrodinger. The car is both as implied by logic, whilst Schrodinger’s cat is both due to us being unsure of its state.

          On the contrary I would say it is exactly Schrodinger. The actual physical world itself can be in a superposition of states until the point of observation/measurement, and that whole thought experiment is meant to highlight the subsurdity in a vivid but somewhat comical way.

            Yes but here is a priori. Is his only car and therefore the best and the worst.

            Schrodinger’s cat is both because of an intricate assessment of quantum states. I know the cat pulls it into our conceptual world, therefore showcasing the weirdness of quantum physics in a comical way.

            But the two cases are not comparable at all imho.
