Is the existence of nautil.us an attempt to make many-worlds theories seem intellectually respectable? They seem to have some kind of mandate to publish at least eight multiverse stories every year.
There are multiple ways to interpret QM which all work out on paper and experimentally agree. There's nothing wrong with the "intellectual respectability" of non-Copenhagen interpretations, other than historical stigmata.
Edit: If you're worked up about "stigmata", just wait for "schemata", "indices", and "alumni".
I only point out typos that are silly, so with that in mind: Stigmata is where you develop sores or bleeding on your hands as some sort of weird solidarity with Jesus. I imagine that would make writing papers harder.
> "When the plural form stigmata is used, it usually refers to the nail wounds on Christ's hands and feet, wounds which have sometimes reappeared on the hands or feet of later worshippers such as St. Francis."
The Copenhagen interpretation is wrong. There have been developments in alternatives but as Max Plank said, we need the current generation scientists to die out so that the better saner alternative can replace it.
