Quantum mechanics is inevitable in hypergraph models because when rewriting a hypergraph, many different rewriting paths are possible at each step; following all possible paths creates a 'multi-way graph' where multiple threads of time coexist, representing the quantum superposition of states before measurement.

Branchial space is the space of possible quantum histories and quantum branches, where motion in branchial space corresponds to changes in quantum state; the analog of the speed of light in branchial space is the maximum entanglement speed, which determines how quickly quantum correlations can spread.

Quantum mechanics is not an add-on feature to the universe but an inevitable consequence of multiway computation—since there are multiple possible update sequences of the hypergraph (multiple possible histories), quantum branching is fundamental; what we experience as definite outcomes results from our branching brains selectively conflating different branches of the multiway graph into consistent narratives.

The many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics is the simplest explanation for quantum phenomena because it requires no additional machinery beyond the Schrödinger equation; all other interpretations must add ad-hoc rules to explain why other measurement outcomes don't occur.

In the many-worlds interpretation, when a quantum system is measured, both possible outcomes become true, but each in a different universe; the universe literally splits into versions where the electron spins clockwise and versions where it spins counterclockwise, with human observers entering superposition themselves.
