To split the worlds the difference must be that the state vector projects onto two (or more) orthogonal subspaces which correspond to the different possible values of the measurement.

                In Many Worlds if the mathematics says that 2 things
                could happen then 2 things do happen. Usually when a
                universe splits the two never recombine again, that's
                why we usually don't see weird quantum effects in our
                everyday lives, and that's why making a Quantum
                Computer is hard. But If the difference between
                universes is very very small


            />>>That seems a bit arbitrary. Exactly how is this "very

*And you know perfectly well what the difference is between**"the same" and "different "!* Or at least I think you do. I learned the difference sometime ago by watching Sesame Street,
