Let us use “superposition of state” instead. The word “world” has too much
metaphysical implicit connotations.
In that case, if the computer run a superposition similar to the initial
calculation in Shor algorithm (before taking the final Fourier transform on all
superposed results), decoherence means that all computations are done on the
superposed state. That is the massive parallelism, than we can exploit through
the final Fourier Transform and measurement.
It's "massive parallelism" only in that the state vector's evolution
simultaneously has components along many different basis vectors. It's like saying a
trajectory is massively parallel because it simultaneously has components in three
dimensions.
If a point moves in a discrete 3D lattice in such a way that each components
makes different computation supporting different consciousness, that will be
counted as histories by the mechanist.
Do you suppose that consciousness can be instantiated by motion in one
axis? Can such motion implement CT computation?
And that is what happen in the “universal” wave, or any wave describing
observer coupled (but not necessarily interacting)
What is "coupled but not interacting" mean?

with a superposed quantum states, when they look up which states they are in.
Without collapse, nothing make an history more real or less real, except from
the first person view of the subjects.
