But in single interpretation only one outcome happens on a trial. The full distribution does not manifest on a single draw. In MWI all the possibilities occur, which is different
One of the corollaries/interpretations of Sanov's theorem is that, generally speaking, when faced with an astonishingly improbable outcome (e.g. flipping 9,000 heads and 1.000 tails out of 10,000 independent coin flips), no statistical test can differentiate between "that improbable occurence with a fair coin" and "an unfair coin" - the fair coin, when it does something improbable, with have (with overwhelming probability) a specific tilted distribution that looks unfair.
