That's just by taking the asymetric interpretation...of the interpretation. Other interpretations of the interpretation complicate things further.
Does either of our position satisfy the conditions for self, or even doppelganger? I'd say no...it's just that there aren't appropriate words to convey the MWI....and that would be expected, I suppose.
Anytime there is a split, the two resulting doppelgangers share the exact same history. There are other doppelgangers in other branches with discrete histories but for the two at the split....their histories are exactly the same.
