Why does a mention of quantum computing in popular media always rely on 'multiple calculations at once' explanation? NYT article talks about how long it will take for the federal government to migrate to quantum-resistant standards. www.nytimes.com/2023/10/22/u...

Screenshot of a paragraph in an article in the NYT. 

Text in the screenshot: Researchers have known since the 1990s that quantum computing — which draws on the properties of subatomic particles to carry out multiple calculations at the same time — might one day threaten the encryption systems in use today.

The line "which draws on the properties of subatomic particles to carry out multiple calculations at the same time" is highlighted in the screenshot.
