The hypothesis that humans can use words to specify points in spacetime to infinite precision, but not to specify Everett branches to infinite precision.
The hypothesis that Everett branches can be described with infinite precision with words is fairly popular. Is this view obviously wrong, or is the analogy obviously flawed?

I’ve never heard of that hypothesis, but I think you meant “unbounded” again.

People often say things like "this branch, as opposed to all the other arbitrarily similar ones", which makes it sound like they think they are specifying a branch to infinite precision.

Wait a second. I just realized that the reasoning that led to me rejecting the hypothesis actually can only conclude that it is impossible to specify *every* location with infinite precision. I’m confused now.
