The concept completely flummoxed me but how does this play with quantum computers? That’s the direction we are going aren’t we?

Quantum computations have to be reversible , because you have to collapse the wave function and take a measurement to throw away any bits of data. You can accumulate junk bits as long as they remain in a superposition. But at some point you have to take a measurement. So, very much related.
