I think this post by entirelyuseless answers your question quite well, so if you’re still puzzled by this, we can continue there. Also, I don’t see how QI depends on any additional weird assumptions. After all, you’re using the word “experience” in your list of two points without defining it exactly. I don’t see why it’s necessary to define it either: a conscious experience is most likely simply a computational thing with a physical basis, and MWI and these other big world scenarios essentially say that all physical states (that are not prohibited by the laws of physics) happen somewhere.

As you can see, I’ve replied at some length to entirelyuseless’s comment.
