  The phenomenon of quantum tunneling remains a fascinating and enigmatic one,
defying classical notions of particle behavior. This paper presents a novel
theoretical investigation of the tunneling phenomenon, from the viewpoint of
Hartman effect, showing that the classical concept of spatiality is transcended
during tunneling, since one cannot describe the process as a crossing of the
potential barrier. This means that quantum tunneling strongly indicates that
quantum non-locality should be understood as an aspect of quantum
non-spatiality. It is also emphasized that according to the Conceptuality
Interpretation of quantum mechanics, a non-spatial state should be understood
as a `state of abstractness' of a conceptual-like entity, which only when it
reaches its maximum degree of concreteness, during the wave-function collapse,
can enter the spatiotemporal layer of our physical reality.
