I think, with some other, that SWE = MWI. That is so true that the founders have added the reduction of the wave postulate to avoid the MWI. I would say that the MWI is a theorem of QM, and that by adding the wave collapse, the theory theory is either inconsistent, or incomplete, but no working completion has ever been able to really suppress the superposition (aka many histories/worlds/dreams). Then, it is a (not completely trivial) theorem in arithmetic that all computations exist and have a complex relative measure with each other. I giot the MWI “interpretation" of arithmetic well before I realise that the physicists were already there. All computations with oracles exist in the internal limit if the first person views associated with any universal number in arithmetic. (I recall that a number u is universal if phi_u(<x, y>) = phi_x(y). I say that u emulates x on y. Thanks to Kleene’s predicate, this can be translated in the language of arithmetic (classical logic + the symbols s, 0, + and *), and the existence of computations is satisfied in all models of Robinson Arithmetic (a very weak arithmetic accepted even by the ultra-finitists).
