The Many Worlds Interpretation doesn't solve it - it just shifts the problem from "how does the wavefunction collapse?" to "how do I end up in one of the Worlds and not all of them at once?". That's an identical problem.
Do you think QM should make efforts to define what a measurement is? Or is that even possible? When you say physicists "punt" the problem, I get the impression you (at least mildly) disapprove of this activity. Should physicists try to take on the problem? Rather than punting?
