Quantum decoherence gives the appearance of wave function collapse ( the reduction of the physical possibilities into a single possibility as seen by an observer ) and justifies the framework and intuition of classical physics as an acceptable approximation: decoherence is the mechanism by which the classical limit emerges out of a quantum starting point and it determines the location of the quantum-classical boundary.

From this frame of reference, it is possible that even if each multiverse had completely different laws of physics, and the amount of possibilities went off in the most unlikely directions, there would be a limit and an end to the amount of possibilities.

The Standard Model's massless neutrinos only differ from their antiparticles by their chirality, and thus, their helicity ; but, since neutrinos have been observed to have mass, there may be physics outside the Standard Model, and this opens the door for two different possibilities of the nature of neutrino mass: Majorana or Dirac.
