Reread this statement, which you quoted: "The problem encountered by the Copenhagen and Many-Worlds Interpretations is that the Afshar Experiment has identified a situation in which these popular interpretations of quantum mechanics are inconsistent with the quantum formalism itself."

The implication is that Copenhagen and Many-Worlds are not valid interpretations, since (he claims) they are inconsistent with the formalism. (I'm not sufficiently well-versed in QM to evaluate this claim, unfortunately.)
