It's not just an assumption. It's an observation. The SE alone
didn't explain the observation, hence the additional ideas.
The
only assumption the MWI makes is that the Schrodinger Wave Equation
is correct, and the
Schrodinger Wave Equation
says it never collapses.
It also says it never evolves into orthogonal subspaces.

So if we accept that it is indeed correct then observation leads us
to conclude that the Multiverse must exist.
The only reason the Copenhagen people assume the SWE is not correct is
because they don't like the Multiverse, although they are unable to
pinpoint where it goes wrong, they wave their hands and use vague
words like "observation" and "measurement" but can't say exactly what
it takes to do either. Copenhagen starts
with the assumption there is no Multiverse and then
tries
to work backward to jury-rig
the
equation to keep the parts they like but get rid of the Multiverse,
but they've made a
dog's breakfast out of it.
