Is Bohmian mechanics not a hidden variable theory disproved by the no-go theorems?

Description

11. Is Bohmian mechanics not a hidden variable theory? There are various no-go theorems, ruling out hidden variable approaches. Does not for example Bell's Theorem or the Kochen-Specker Theorem prove Bohmian mechanics wrong?

This series is aimed at answering FAQs about Bohmian mechanics and is mainly intended for students. The text is available at

By Christian Beck, Robert Grummt, Florian Hoffmann, Sören Petrat, and Nicola Vona.
We are grateful to Martin Oelker who played the asking student, and to Nils Hansen and Stephan Kulla who filmed the videos.
