It's not that it's odd that bothers me; it's that it's grasping at straws to explain something we don't understand. And it's based on a deep, non-empirically supported fallacy; that, for example, in a horse race, there MUST be worlds in which every horse wins. Also, the MWI enthusiasts seem oblivious to the issue of where the energy comes from to create these other worlds. The interpretation is not simply odd; rather it seems dumb, based on a dubious hypothesis and ignoring the NON-EXISTENCE OF EVIDENCE that those other worlds even exist.

There's no reason to assume that any OTHER AG's are in contact with each other. Maybe you need to add another hypothesis to your MWI.
