I was under the impression that the theory implied that only n-1 amount of parallel universes are created when a decision is made, where n represents the amount of possibles choices there are to this decision.

It's not based on decision, it's based on whatever could supposedly physically happen. The decision is also occurring, but the fact that it is a decision is irrelevant.

Looks to me like this thread has gone quite offtopic, especially considering the subforum in which it's placed.

Rather than simply moving it, however, I'd like to ask you all posting in it what you think - do you think the current topic should still be held in this subforum, or do you feel things could be more beneficial elsewhere?
