You are trying to remove all sense from the idea of a semi-classical world. By doing this, you remove any possibility for your physics to actually describe our everyday experience.

Show me, in detail, how it is that non-correlated branches can exist, but Alice and Bob never experience them. What might that mean? All Alices meet some Bob or other, and vice versa. There are no unmatched persons, floating in unmatched 'worlds'. The “fully local explanation” is known by everybody: it is the Schroedinger > equation.

But when we do this, we can see explicitly that the correlations originate in the non-local features of the quantum state. The Schroedinger equation describes local unitary evolution, but when applied to a non-local state -- a state that refers explicitly to two non-separable spacetime locations -- then the results are non-local. The SE does not eliminate the non-locality inherent in the quantum state. Bruce -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
