To make my point more strongly, that is the wrong way round.
Observation of statistics far from the expected value is what would
be required to confirm MWI.
I don’t see this at all.
The fact that we don't observe such results is the strongest possible
case against MWI!

The probability to see a deviation is the same in both Everett, and
Copenhagen. The deviation expected is the same, so if there is a
deviation, it can hardly be used to claim one theory is more correct
than the other.
But as Bruce points out Tegmark's machine gun experiment is effectively
being carried out by each of us. So if each of us lives on a million
years in some branch of the MW, then each of us will experience 99.9% of
our life as a very old person among people younger than 100yrs.
