A confining gauge theory violates the completeness of asymptotic states held as foundation points of the $S$-matrix. Spin-dependent experiments can yield results that appear to violate quantum mechanics. The point is illustrated by violation of the Soffer bound in $QCD$. Experimental confirmation that the bound is violated would be a discovery of immense importance, sweeping away fundamental assumptions of strong interaction physics held for the past 50 years.
