Schrödinger's Cat Has 0 to 9 Lives!

*** Today's Sudoku ***

Regular viewers will be aware of Simon's assertion that there is no such thing as a Schrödinger cell.... starwarigami makes a mockery of this with a sudoku called Schrödinger's Killer! This is really witty and innovative and James Bond might even make an appearance (!). Play the puzzle at the link below:

https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/sudoku/hJ3qL9nN4Q

Rules:
Place the digits 0-9 in the grid so that every row, column and 3x3 box contains every digit exactly once. To enable this, there is a single Schrödinger cell in each box, containing a superposition of two different digits. Every Schrödinger cell contains a unique pair of digits. No Schrödinger cell can see another Schrödinger cell by a Queen's move in chess (i.e. any distance horizontally, vertically or diagonally). Digits in a cage may not repeat and must sum to the indicated total. Schrödinger cells contribute the average of their two digits to the cage total.
