To postulate it is irrational. OK. But once the randomness admits a simple explanation, like with the self-duplicating procedure, it becomes intelligible. Everett saves physics from being un-intelligible, and indeed, leads to the explanation by arithmetic and its internal meta-arithmetic (à la Gödel).
