Trying to Understand Many-Worlds Interpretation Better

This is why I, and others, feel that MWI is a product of probabilities, trivially true, if true at all. It wouldn't actually imply any of the things that people so often connect to it. Why invoke MWI at all, if we're going to immediately water it down, and what can be said of that which cannot be articulated without butchery?
