The MWI needs renormalization just like its competitors, but nobody
said many-worlds
theory is the be all and end all and needs no improvement, but at least it
provides a quantum-mechanical model however imperfect it may be. I think
it's a important step toward a theory that is significantly less wrong. I
am, of course, not sure of that.
