Abstract
In a recent article [Phys. Rev. A 111, 022204 (2025)], Genovese and Piacentini analyzed recent experiments measuring what they call “the entire Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (Bell-CHSH) parameter.” They claimed those experiments may have implications for interpreting loophole-free tests of the Bell-CHSH inequality. We explain that the Bell-CHSH inequality is not based on the entire Bell parameter, so these experiments are unrelated to their empirical tests and cannot close any eventual loopholes that might still persist. We point out that the physical meaning of these new experiments measuring the entire Bell parameter could be interpreted differently.
