N2 - We argue that the quantum probability law follows, in the large N limit, from the compatibility of quantum mechanics with classical-like properties of macroscopic objects. For a finite sample, we find that likely and unlikely measurement outcomes are associated with distinct interference effects in a sample weakly coupled to an environment.
