The Everett program says the only assumption Quantum Mechanics needs is that the Schrodinger Equation means what it says, and nobody in their right mind thinks Quantum Mechanics as it currently exists, or the Schrodinger Equation, describes gravity. *> That is clearly false (no Born rule in the SE), * The Born Rule is not an assumption nor is it a theory, it is an experimentally derived fact, a fact that EVERY quantum interpretation makes use of. *> so it might be wise to doubt the universal application of the SE.* Without Schrodinger's Equation there could be no quantum wave function, and without the quantum wave function there could be no Born Rule, and without the Born Rule there could be no Quantum Mechanics. And Quantum Mechanics is the most universally applicable idea in all of science, it works on everything except gravity, so it might be wise to keep it around.
