  In this paper we discuss the representational realist stance as a pluralist
ontic approach to inter-theoretic relationships. Our stance stresses the fact
that physical theories require the necessary consideration of a conceptual
level of discourse which determines and configures the specific field of
phenomena discussed by each particular theory. We will criticize the orthodox
line of research which has grounded the analysis about QM in two (Bohrian)
metaphysical presuppositions -accepted in the present as dogmas that all
interpretations must follow. We will also examine how the orthodox project of
"bridging the gap" between the quantum and the classical domains has
constrained the possibilities of research, producing only a limited set of
interpretational problems which only focus in the justification of "classical
reality" and exclude the possibility of analyzing the possibilities of
non-classical conceptual representations of QM. The representational realist
stance introduces two new problems, namely, the superposition problem and the
contextuality problem, which consider explicitly the conceptual representation
of orthodox QM beyond the mere reference to mathematical structures and
measurement outcomes. In the final part of the paper, we revisit, from a
representational realist perspective, the quantum to classical limit and the
orthodox claim that this inter-theoretic relation can be explained through the
principle of decoherence.
