I don't understand how you decouple the two. You shoot a photon at a 
photomultiplier. The photomultiplier emits a click. The interaction causes 
the measurement. I don't know how you take a measurement without an 
interaction of *some* sort, and I don't know how you interact with something 
without taking a measurement unless you entangle your state with the device 
with which you're interacting.
