One could always argue that since there is only a finite (even if unimaginably huge) amount of possible branching points, we’re actually talking about a discrete probability distribution.
How do you mean?
I’m talking about the fundamental physics of the universe. From a mathematical perspective, it’s far more elegant (ergo, more likely) to deal with a partial differential equation defined on a continuous configuration space. Attempts to discretize the space in the name of infinite-set atheism seem ad-hoc to me.
Oh, right—I was under the impression that MWI would have involved discrete transitions at some point (I haven’t had the energy to read all of the MWI sequence). If that’s incorrect, then ignore my previous comment.
