We show by embodying the Einstein equivalence principle and general covariance in quantum theory that wave-function spreading rules out universality of free fall, and vice versa. Assuming the former is more fundamental than the latter, we gain a quantitative estimate of the free-fall non-universality, which turns out to be empirically testable in atom interferometry.Comment: typos fixed, extended, references adde
