Thus by multiverse logic the Supreme Being exists.

Excuse me for just jumping in here, but this is a field in which I have some interest.
Only if the SB is contained within the physics of the set of multiverse options is it (He) a necessary component. This gets very abstract, but the Many Worlds hypothesis doesn't actually require any super-set outside of the possible set of quantum mechanical universes. The Anthropic Principles, strong and weak, do not require or even infer a Supreme Being if the Many World hypothesis is adopted. Conversely, neither does MW exclude a SB, since a Level 4 Muliverse includes meta-quantum mechanical universes...

No excuse necessary to jump in but always feet first lest your cabeza meet the bottom of the pool.

By definition the Supreme Being is neither contained nor constrained by the laws of physics. Check with planck time if you don't belive me.

Multiverse doesn't require quanta at all. In fact there must be universes where QM does NOT apply because all events will happen in the, drum roll, MULTIVERSE!

The Anthropic Principles, strong and weak, do not require or even infer a Supreme Being if the Many World hypothesis is adopted.

So you say. I don't agree, a multiverse where all events event requires the SB.

Conversely, neither does MW exclude a SB, since a Level 4 Muliverse includes meta-quantum mechanical universes...

Here, I'll defer to your superior knowledge. I can't even get to the Level K Multiverse.
