I don't think QC uses naive Copenhagen by convention? I remember reading something by a quantum computation scientist (maybe it was Scott Aaronson?) who said he prefers many works.

What a researcher prefers is different from how quantum programming languages are structured and how the mathematical model is taught: you have a state vector in superposition that is collapsed probabilistically to classical values on measurement.

It is interesting though behind the scenes of this description, David Deutsch really does think the worlds of MWI are interfering with each other to allow quantum computations.
