Resolves to one if it is universally accepted (except a tiny fringe), otherwise is weighted based on something believable as to the current state of thinking, like something published in quanta magazine for example.

I think it is a philosophical issue as to whether the other worlds are 'real'. Copenhagen requires a "collapse" of the wave function and this doesn't. Disclaimer: I am an armchair follower of this stuff not even studied it as an undergraduate.
