And just to follow up on that, there are still an infinite number of
irrational numbers between 0 and 0.00001. But not as large an
infinity as those between 0.00001 and 1.
It is the same cardinal (2^aleph_zero). But cardinality is not what
count when searching a measure.
So extrapolating to universes, the very low probability, white
rabbit universes also occur an infinite number of times, but that
does not make them equally as likely as the universes which behave
as we would classically expect.
That is what remain to be seen. But if comp is true, we know the
measure has to exist, and the math gives some clues that it is indeed
the case, from machines' (consistent and/or true) points of view.

If you subdivide a continuum, I assume you can do so in a way that
gives the required probabilities. For example if the part of the
multiverse that is involved in performing a quantum measurement with
a 50-50 chance of either outcome is represented by the numbers 0 to
1, you can divide those into 0-0.5 and 0.5 to 1. Doesn't David do
something like this in FOR? (Or is this too simplistic?)
