You can’t really look at an ensemble from the inside, only your own universe. Does any of that clarify anything?
I think so, in the sense that I think we basically understand each other; but I’m not sure why you agree but seem uninterested in the idea that “certainly the whole ensemble has little or no information content”. Do you think that’s all there really is to say on the matter? (That sounds reasonable, I guess I just still feel like there’s more to the answer, or something.)
Well, I am interested in it in the sense that one of the things that attracted me to the multiverse theory in the first place was its marvelous economy of assumption. I’m not sure there is anything much else specifically to be said about that, though.
