The Many Worlds Interpretation Prob

Where the multiverse is a real problem

According to the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, every time you have a choice, the multiverse splits into multiple parallel universes, each with a different outcome. But what happens when you have a choice that's not really a choice, like when you're stuck eating ramen noodles for dinner every night?

Is it really 2^5 possible universes where you're eating ramen, or 2^6 where you're eating ramen, but with a side of fortune cookies?

Or maybe it's just 2^0, where you're eating ramen in the only universe where you're actually a functioning member of society?

Either way, it's a real prob for the multiverse.
