the FPI of step 3):
The "above pap" is only a small step in an argument (and it only
reproduces a result obtained in the MWI, anyway).
OK, but the MWI is a "big" thing, relying on another big thing: QM.
The FPI assumes only the comp theory of mind, and extracts, as PGC
indicates, a strong form of indeterminacy in a purely deterministic
framework. That makes QM confirming a simple, (even according to
Clark) but startling and counter-intuitive consequence of
computationalism.
That was new, and broke the common brain-mind identity thesis, and is
basically still ignored by everyone, except on this list and my
papers, 'course.
