I disagree with this. Everett did propose a new theory. It is SWE,
that is QM without collapse. *All* interpretations of it are multi-
realities. Everett is just QM, and the Everett branches comes from
not avoiding the contagion of superposition, which follows from
SWE linearity. The existence of the relative superposition is a
theorem of QM. Copenhagen is SWE+ collapse, and this is self-
contradictory or quite fuzzy (what is the collapse?).
It is changing your knowledge of the wave-function - replacing some
uncertainty with some knowledge.
Arguably so if the comp arithmetical quantum logic fits with the
observed quantum logic. I do appreciate Pauli and Fuchs. Where I
disagree, is that they oppose this to Everett, but I see no reason
why. In fact Everett+Fuch is made consistent in the many-dreams
interpretation of arithmetic, developed by the numbers inside
arithmetic.

Bruno, you may take this as a joke.
But I think that quantum state selection is like selected a sperm to
enter the egg.
In the dream space the most probably staets are clustered together,
And all together, like the intelligent sperm,
The states decide which state is selected
to enter the physical world..
I know that life is hard and that spermatozoids have a lot of hard
time to convince an ovule to let it go in. But "entering the physical
world" does not make much sense to me as there are no such "reality"
in my favorite theory. What exists in arithmetic is a notion of more
probable computations/consistent extensions, and the correct
description of them must give the laws of physics, so we can test the
theory.
Thanks for letting me take your metaphor as a joke, you reassure me :)
