Yes, except the Multiverse (MWI as you call it) is not devoid of
information. The Plenitude is. There are (hopefully) good reasons why
conscious entities must live in the Multiverse, therefore the
Multiverse itself is an objective reality. The individual quantum
histories (ie classical universes that we know and love) within the
multiverse are subjective.
