Hmm. So if, say, I committed quantum suicide, then traveled back, I wouldn’t have any special information about the result of the RNG. Most of me would still end up in worlds where I died; God’s dice get re-rolled every time round. No extra math to prevent paradoxes; although it still looks like Novikov for non-quantum events.
Whereas under standard Novikov Consistency, I’m restricted to the worlds where I survived, because otherwise I came from nowhere. In fact, the universe is restricted to those worlds; there are only worlds where I survived and came back and worlds where I died and didn’t. Thus, no Everett branching. Right.
The degree to which the difference would be observable depends on the amount of quantum variance in your life, I guess.
