Abstract
According to orthodox quantum theory, the joint measurement of noncommuting observables is impossible. It has been claimed recently that such joint measurements are admitted in a generalized formalism for quantum theory developed by Ludwig and Davies, by means of so-called 'unsharp observables.' It is argued in this paper that this claim has not been substantiated.
