I thought many worlds meant every single possible divergent quantum thingy gets its own universe. There is a universe where a single potassium atom in a banana in my kitchen doesn't decay and there is another universe where that same potassium atom does decay. Multiply that for every single particle in the universe, right?
I guess even if that was true on a macroscopic level that's not going to guarantee that every possible thing happens?
