A comment on How Two Rebel Physicists Changed Quantum Theory. Parent comment
I'm not sure what you mean by "'hallucinated' Hilbert spaces", but MWI is just the combination of the claims that
- The wavefunction is a (the) real physical object
- The Schrodinger equation always holds
- The Born rule is correct (though there's some hope this might be derivable from QM)
The "worlds" are then a statmech phenomenon.
