It's not?
If a probability cloud collapses, that world never comes to fruition and never branches into more outcomes.
All outcomes exist, but some outcomes exist more often than others, i.e. some
choices are made more often than others. Free will therefore, as we experience it, is associated with the probabilty of each individual outcome being chosen.
Most of my knowledge of many-worlds (or parallel universes) comes from DeWitt's interpretation of Everett. I am by no means an expert, more an "armchair" science geek..
I once read a very good paper explaining the different elements of Everett, I will try to find it tomorrow; no doubt he explains it much better than I do. One of these days I'm going to try to read David Deutsch's book- but I'm not sure that my attention span is that long.
