he Copenhagen interpretation suggests there's a priveliged branch in some way, which is the one we actually perceive. Why should there be? This priveliged branch idea is adding something that we don't need to add.

MWI adds a privileged basis that is also unnecessary.

Many worlds is pretty much that view.

MWI adds a universal quantum state that is not , and cannot be, observed.
