John Stewart Bell replaced the concept of an observable with the concept of a beable. I don't think we "observe" a field directly but it seems we observe the effect of being in a field. I think the beable is more expansive but then again it could be more restrictive. I mean a quantum state is not observable. If it was, it wouldn't snap into particle behavior when observed.
