I don't know; sorry. I would guess that he thinks, as I do, that because "it all adds up to normality" we should think about our successors in different branches in much the same way as we do about our different possible successors when we think in probabilistic terms, and that QI doesn't have much actual content. But I may well be making the standard mistake of assuming that other people think the same as one does oneself.
