no, he talks about the perception of branching. The universe isn't branching, a coherent thread we observe is.
It's the difference between tracing a path on a graph, and seeing a graph change.

of course. I see the cat end up dead or alive, not in the superposition of both. Hence, I perceive a branch.
I meant that to all appearances, I seem to live in a reality that does not ever split, and it is only a complex deductive argument made by Everett and his followers that makes me to suspect that reality does in fact split.
Anyway, I doubt that further dialog between you and I will lead anywhere fruitful.
If branching is real, then the perception we have is of "not branching".
