I've never heard of 'Dust Theory' before, but I should think it follows trivially from most large multiverse theories, does it not?

Nah, it's not just vanilla anthropics, it also contains the claim that measure doesn't matter and/or causal structure doesn't matter. Since these claims don't seem to hold for me, I'm not going to migrate to the dust anytime soon.
