Seriously? Frequentists simply build infinite amount of parallel Universes and ask what percentage of the Universes It occurs with certainty.

  That sounds like a pretty sensible approach if you believe in Many-Worlds.

    It has nothing to do with that. Even if there is a single world, it is enough to make the thought experiment.

      My point is, in Many-Words the parallel universes aren’t just a thought experiment, they are the actual real future of your current self. The computed probabilities do not describe potentialities then, but actualities.

        Probabilities can represent uncertainty about actual things - things that are hardly going to be different even if you strongly imagine your current self branching out into a myriad of parallel universes.

  What’s the probability that Russian drones attacked the Nord Stream pipeline? It’s the fraction of parallel universes where that happened - or something.
