Of course, but which superposition? People interpret ud-du by a superposition 
of ud with du, but it can be seen as superposition like u’d -d’u, et Alice can 
choose the partition of the multiverse, which is indeed greater that any simple 
superposition. You need to add perhaps that the prediction is independent of 
the base, and that follows from Everett theory.

We just don’t share the interpretation of the universal wave. But your’s and 
Bruce remains quite unclear to me, and seem to impose some favorite base, 
which, especially in this case, cannot work, or Alice becomes overdetermined or 
superdetermined (which I doubt).
