[Bruce] Not really comparable. The probability of what ball you get is distinct 
from the fact that the ball exists. MWI is not a theory about what you will 
see. Any theory about that is necessarily a single world theory since you only 
see one ball. MWI is a theory about what exists, and its claim is that many 
worlds all exist with probability one.

 

Principle of least information? Omniverse -> Multiverse -> Universe?

"Jaynes' followers propose a profound connection between action and 
information, such that the principle of least action and the laws of 
thermodynamics both derive from basic symmetries of logic itself. We need only 
accept that all conceivable universes are equally likely, a principle of least 
information. Under this assumption, we can imagine a smooth spectrum from 
metaphysics to physics, from the omniverse to the multiverse to the universe, 
where the fundamental axis is information, and the only fundamental law is that 
you can never assume more than you know." -- David Dalrymple
