Oh, interesting. So just as one should act as if one is Jesus if one seems to be Jesus, then one should act as if one cares about world-histories in proportion to their L2 measure if one seems to care about world-histories in proportion to their L2 measure and one happens to be in a world-history with relatively high L2 measure. And if probability is degree of caring, then the fact that one's world history obeys the Born rule is evidence that one cares about world-histories in proportion to their L2 measure.
I take it you would prefer option 2 in my original comment, reduce anticipation to UDT, and explain away continuity of experience.
Have I correctly characterized your point of view?
Exactly! Much better than I could!
