A megascopic revalidation is offered providing responses and resolutions ofcurrent inconsistencies and existing contradictions in present-day quantumtheory. As the core of this study we present an independent proof of theGoldstone theorem for a quantum field formulation of molecules and solids.Along with phonons two types of new quasiparticles appear: rotons andtranslons. In full analogy with Lorentz covariance, combining space and timecoordinates, a new covariance is necessary, binding together the internal andexternal degrees of freedom, without explicitly separating the centre-of-mass,which normally applies in both classical and quantum formulations. Thegenerally accepted view regarding the lack of a simple correspondence betweenthe Goldstone modes and broken symmetries, has significant consequences: anambiguous BCS theory as well as a subsequent Higgs mechanism. The applicationof the archetype of the classical spontaneous symmetry breaking, i.e. theMexican hat, as compared to standard quantum relations, i.e. the Jahn-Tellereffect, superconductivity or the Higgs mechanism, becomes a disparity. Inshort, symmetry broken states have a microscopic causal origin, but transitionsbetween them have a teleological component. The different treatments of theproblem of the centre of gravity in quantum mechanics and in field theoriesimply a second type of Bohr complementarity on the many-body level opening thedoor for megascopic representations of all basic microscopic quantum axiomswith further readings for teleonomic megascopic quantum phenomena, which haveno microscopic rationale: isomeric transitions, Jahn-Teller effect, chemicalreactions, Einstein-de Haas effect, superconductivity-superfluidity, andbrittle fracture.
