The Born rule

Abstract
We deduce the Born rule. No use is required of quantum postulates. One exploits only rudimentary quantum mathematics--a linear, not Hilbert', vector space--and empirical notion of the statistical length of a state. Its statistical nature comes from the experimental detector-clicks being formalized into the abstract quantum micro-events. We also comment on that it is not only that the use has not been made of some quantum axioms when deriving the rule but, in a sense, their invoking would be inconsistent.
