Quantum entanglement is mysterious. There is no communication, no collusion across vast distances. States are also not pre-programmed, like Christmas lights.
The paradox disappears though if you accept that rather than being separate things, mysteriously doing a co-ordinated dance, there is in fact just one thing, being itself. It may be a bit like a lighthouse seen in a mirror.
Seen in one way, it is here. Seen in another way, it is a thousand light years away. Its spin may appear flipped but there is no 'entanglement' and no need of a theory of entanglement.
Am I being daft and simplistic?
