I think you are asking a wrong question. Your bottom line is prewritten: “Many Worlds consists of taking the equations seriously”. This is far from agreed upon by the experts in the field, though many do express this sentiment. My position is that any MW discussion is a distraction and EY’s pet peeve, and should be kept out of this forum as much as possible, including any surveys.
Well, I don’t think it matters much for the survey purposes, actually, but, as I said, a Quantum Information course like this one would enable one to gain competency in the issues relevant to Many Worlds. A standard undergraduate or even graduate QM course spends hardly any time on the measurement problem.

It being EY’s pet peeve is why it was a survey question last time as well. Assuming you couldn’t keep it out, what would you suggest?
