The only outcomes you can measure from a qubit is one of two states: true or false. That's not the case of analogue even if it is stochastic, monte carlo, or whatever.
The essence of analog computing is that physical quantities are represented by physical quantities.
Huh? I'm not sure what you are trying to say here as what you state is just a tautology.
In previous machines these quantities were considered to be continuous; in this particular example, they happen to be quantized.
What previous machines are you speaking of? Cheers Michael.
