Bell's theorem is habitually used as an advertisement for non-local formulations of quantum mechanics and the statement that local realist interpretations are untenable. We identify four categories of interpretations that are permissible by Bell's theorem. Many local and deterministic descriptions remain seemingly ignored. For three of those categories, we present an example of an interpretation where a local flow of quantum information is possible. We assess whether current experimental proposals and an improved philosophy of science can contrast interpretations and distinguish between them.
