But suppose that we represented the state of our system as an amplitude distribution over a momentum-configuration space, instead of a position-configuration space. Would not the amplitude assigned to a specific momentum-configuration in the near future depend only on the present amplitudes assigned to configurations that are similar momentum-wise?

No.
