It is not a coincidence that those who have a difficulty with computationalism, have a difficulty with Everett, and hallucinate spooky action at a distance.

Everett, despite your repeated claims, did not eliminate non- locality from quantum mechanics. It is pure rhetoric to continually refer to non-locality as "spooky action at a distance". You should get up to speed with contemporary thinking about non-locality in physics.

(And before you start shouting "ad hominem", reflect on your oft repeated assertions that some of us should get up to speed on contemporary logic/computer science.)


Yes, eventually, I saw we were on the same side on this. Everett eliminated only the spooky actions at a distance, which result from Bell's inequality violation once we assume the uniqueness of measurement outcome. The non locality which remains is the trivial one, which exists already in any theory, as most attributes of a theory are non local (if the number one disappear, all numbers disappear non locally, but of course without any physical (nor mental) action at a distance).
