Because if you agree with "I dunno which city I will see", by deducing it through an

However this depends on there being no fact-of-the-matter as to which man, Washington
or Moscow, is "you". That either one is "you" seems to depend on memories shared with
you. Any other interpretation would simply say you were annihilated and neither man is
you. This in turn depends on memories being classical things - not subject to quantum
interference phenomena
Comp is neutral on the quantum, at the start, then we have to recover it or at least
that is correct.
and not being reversible.
Irreversibility of first person experience can be recovered from reversible
computation.
That would be statistical irreversibility, i.e. reversal is improbable but not
impossible.
Indeed some universal machine are reversible (billiard ball, quantum computer,
etc.).
But isn't there a distinction between reversible and irreversible computations? Doesn't
the UD do both of them?
