Yes. Notice the word "layer."
The word "layer" has nothing to do with it.
You were saying that every time a memory is accessed it gets overwritten and if accessed a lot of times it will become completely muddied.
So this would actually speak in favor of the Luke thing, since like you just pointed out, such a memory would not be accessed often.
So you are wrong somewhere.

You said that the more you acces a memory, the more likely it is that it will get muddied.

You, seem to have trouble comprehending things again. My point is that his claim doesn't add up. I wasn't talking to you.

Again, explain how evolution would be so vastly different in your timeline, yet everything else is almost identical!
If there are infinite timelines one is bound to be almost identical but with a different anatomy.

I responded to that specific claim, if it was an oversimplification or whatever then it was on you.
Except that there is no proof that there are infinite timelines.

There is no proof for other timelines period. The guy was demanding an explanation about an aspect of a speculative theory. Pointing out that there is no proof to back up this explanation is redundant.

So don't blame me for pointing out the problem with that specific statement.
So why do you favor an explanation for which there is no proof over an explanation for which there is abundant proof?
I also disagree that there is any particular "problem" with the statement. But it's hardly worth arguing about something that wasn't meant to describe a literal physiological process in detail.

What other explanation? The guy demanded an explanation about why this timeline is almost identical but has a different anatomy. I gave a possible explanation.
What you are talking about is why I favor the ME over bad memory, which wasn't the subject of this particular exchange.

Like I said, it may not have been meant like that, but it is what you said in a discussion about a literal physiological process.

You made a point, I pointed out the problem with it, then you said you "didn't mean it like that". Then don't say it. That's the point.

Are you suggesting that you don't favor ME over bad memory?
I am saying that this wasn't the subject of this particular exchange. I just said this.
