There are only two branches, if 2 electrons are entangled and Alice measures spin up then Bob will measure spin down with certainty. The outcome of the experiment can only be up-down or down-up, up-up and down-down *NEVER* happens. Many Worlds doesn't say everything can happen, it says everything that is consistent with Schrödinger's Equation will happen, but up-up and down-down are *NOT* consistent with Schrodinger. In the language of Many Worlds, the world splits into the up-down and down-up universes, there are no up-up or down-down universes. *> the current post comes no nearer to giving a local explanation than any > of your previous posts.* I clearly showed that a violation of Bell's Inequality is not just physically impossible but is logically impossible IF things are both local and realistic, and I also clearly showed that Many Worlds can still work because although it is local it is not realistic, and *because Many Worlds is non-realistic, and thus doesn't have a static lookup table, it has no need to resort to any of these non-local influences to explain experimental results. *That is what you asked for and that is what I provided, so I don't see why I should be required to write more, I already feel like I'm on the verge of carpal tunnel syndrome.
