Cautious Caul is interesting because I actually do expect that my utility is nonlinear with respect to measure. For instance, if I got to choose between either the entire universe getting destroyed with probability 1/2 or half of Everett branches getting destroyed with probability 1, I would much prefer the second one. That said, in practice, I don't expect to be able to make any use of the distinction between measure in a multiverse and probability.
