> That might be the case. But something still smells in the many worlds theory---it's hard to reconcile conservation of energy or mass with the notion of an infinitely branching multiverse, and if there is no way to interact with those other branches, are they real or just a story we're telling ourselves to try and justify the math?
Looking at the multiverse as branching is where the confusion comes in. There's one Universal wave-function. Why we don't experience the wave-function directly is the mystery.
