I didn't claim that, I simply asked more explanation on the following answer you give to Stathis: Stathis: "For example, the version of me alive in the multiverse branches where he has won the lottery every week for a year has much lower measure, but he is not proportionately less conscious." Peter: "Then you have a WR problem. Barbour introduces the idea that low-measure Nows are less conscious in order to avoid the WR problem, and with no other motivation." As I understand your answer you seem to imply that you agree that the Stathis version who has won the lottery every week for a year has much lower measure and by quoting Barbour ideas of low measure "now"/OM are less conscious to avoid white rabbit problem I understood you said that rich/lucky/put the term you like here people are less conscious because they have less measure. But now I understand that you don't need a measure theory... So I think disputing the idea with another idea with which you do not agree is not fair... Or I misunderstood you which is of high probability ;) So in fact you are just disputing the measure... still in all you've said I don't see where you avoid WR. And also what could mean a primary matter/reality in a multiverse... which branch is real ? all ? then where is the primary real in all this ?
