should we implement free will?

if many worlds is true, then in our current paradigm of physics, every possible outcome of any time step is instantiated.

however, once we take over everything, we might be able to hack physics to implement exact computing, and then upload ourselves to simulations running on those.

it is then to be decided: should we choose to keep forking every possibility? or should we select, at least in simulated minds, some outcome as the only one that gets instantiated, such as by selecting the most likely outcome and instatiating only that? or maybe it should be up to persons and societies?
