I believe in quantum MW (among others) and so I am 100% sure that in some universe there will be a 100-year survivor. But I answered for the average branch. Probably worth clarifying.
100% is a rather big number. To the extent that if you are wrong your entire model of the world is unable to recover!
Actually, in the survey I said 99.9%. Which I rounded to 100% here because it wasn't my main point.
Similarly here- I answered the cryonics/anti-aging/x-risk questions for the typical Everett branch, since I presume that makes them comparable to the responses of people who find MWI less likely.
