No the I before measuring the spin, is as clear as the I pushing the button, no confusion... When I ask that I what is the probability he'll see spin up *UNDER MWI WHERE YOU'LL BE DUPLICATED DOING SUCH EXPERIMENT*, that I will answer 0.5.... but when asking the same I who will push the button what is the probability he'll see washington *UNDER THE COMP DUPLICATION EXPERIMENT WHERE YOU'LL BE DUPLICATED DOING SUCH EXPERIMENT* he talks bullshit about doppelganger and invalid pronous use... well John... bullshit and bullshit again... do us a favor, reject MWI.
