    “Non-binary” only means there are not-two-states.

    The state of having two states and the state of not-having-two-states is itself a two-state solution.

    Unfortunately, once you rule out non-binary as a third state, you collapse back into the original binary state. Thus, non-binary exists as a quantum superposition between states, as we fluctuate between whether or not being non-binary is politically correct.

          I don’t think anyone will agree to dropping a massive Schrodinger box over the whole region

            We put a large box over the middle east and left a vial of radioactive material in there.

            Now either Israel ignored it and freaked out about the box like everyone else or they immediately used it to make bombs and eradicate their neighbors out of view.

            Schrodinger’s Palestine.

      But nobody is in the state of having two states, though. People range from being in one state to “it’s complicated”, but how would you be in exactly two states?
