The fact that neo-Copenhagen is still dominant doesn’t change that QM itself doesn’t specify an interpretation; it just gives the math. Everettians aren’t "out over their skies", they’re just following unitary evolution without adding an arbitrary collapse. If reality doesn’t conform to the simplest assumption, then what justifies adding a non-unitary collapse rule beyond personal preference?
