There are several competing theories for a multiverse (and just as many well qualified people who don't think it exists or is an unscientific idea of pure metaphysics) and you seem to be combining characteristics of different ones. Also, the existence of any of the possible multiverse structures is not confirmed to any degree other than as implications of pure theory.

That said, if an infinite multiverse based on collapsing probability clouds does exist, you'll all have to admit I am right that free will does not exist (and you already have in some of them).

All that said, the multiverse explanation you offer for PLR still does not explain why the reported results of PLR seem to almost entirely fit into a very narrow band of the possible results, though it would nicely place PLR outside the realm of rational investigation (since any negative result could just be blamed on having contacted a past life in an alternate universe where things did happen as desribed or where "ook ook, grunt, sniffle" is valid medieval French.
