Unfortunately, it is not treated as a preference. People use magic words like Occam’s razor, Solomonoff induction and Kolmogorov complexity to justify why the MWI is better, without any attempt to quantify it. Well, I did make an attempt to quantify the complexity in one of my comments. Predictably, at least in the hindsight, there was little interest in discussing the validity or the consequences of this approach.
