Aziz and Howl's Gravity-Induced Entanglement Channel is Essentially Classical Mechanics

Aziz and Howl argued that a classical gravitational field can generate quantum entanglement through a quantum-field-theoretic channel mediated by virtual matter propagation. However, their claimed channel is more naturally and accurately understood as semiclassical wavepacket motion in an external gravitational field, rather than as a distinctively quantum-field-theoretic entangling effect. Moreover, the result of their perturbative computation is incorrectly magnified: they selected a discontinuous wavefunction with infinite kinetic energy as the initial state and simultaneously treated it as stationary. Once a correct treatment using Gaussian wavepacket is adapted, the resulting effect will be negligibly small.
