Some physicists claim that the apparently impossible things implied by postselection prove that it cannot work, which would destroy Prof

This works as postselection allows you to dictate which quantum states can be teleported, limiting what state it can have been in before the teleportation.

Professor Lloyd and his team say that, by combining teleportation and postselection, it would be possible to carry out the quantum teleportation effect in reverse; that is, to decide after the teleportation what the quantum state must have been before it.
