We have shown in previous work that the rigorous equivalence of the Schr\"odinger and Heisenberg pictures requires that one uses Born-Jordan quantization in place of Weyl quantization. It also turns out that the so-called Dahl-Springborg angular momentum dilemma disappears if one uses Born--Jordan quantization. These two facts strongly suggest that the latter is the only true quantization procedure, and this leads to a redefinition of phase space quantum mechanics, where the usual Wigner distribution has to be replaced with a new distribution.
