I also see no important difference between classical and quantum Russian roulette, but I still don’t think I understand how what you’re saying about branches relates to that.
In any case, unless I’ve misunderstood Viliam’s original comment, it seems like you and he are in agreement; his argument is meant as an anti-QI intuition pump and is really only directed at those who (unlike you, unless I’m confused) endorse QI.
On a second thought I too couldn’t find any possible difference between quantum and classical roulette, if your preference is not shifted by the measure of the branches where you’re not dead.
