Although it makes sense in QM only because QM justifies that some possibility have more weight than others. Now a universal turing machine (in the mathematical sense) cannot distinguish ersatz linguistic worlds (cf David Lewis) from "real" one, and this asks already for a "MWI" interpretation of arithmetic. It less clear that some world will be less weighted (and that is what we call the hunting of white rabbits).
