Aha! Now what of Boltzmann Brains and how this topic is undervalued by the intellects here.

The UD is more general than the Boltzman brain. It contains the web of all Boltzmann brain manifestation. There is no actual real "brains", even for a physicalist it is only first person symmetry breaking in the symmetrical universal waves of the (quantum) vacuum.

My friend Greg will be relieved to learn that he didn't really have a brain to cause him trouble:

Unfortunately I was saying the contrary. You don't need a brain to have those trouble. As far as we know, life after death might be infinite alzheimer (but even that would be difficult to interpret).

There is no brain in the ontology, but in the epistemology, more preciesly in the opbservable, we have infinities of brains. QM without collapse would confirm this.
