I think her argument was that she has consciousness in two groups of
universes: the ones where her father is dead and the ones where he is still
alive, and that if she eliminates her consciousness in first group, then
she'll only be conscious in the second. We dont reflect on ourselves when
we're dead. All I experience is that she and her dad are dead in this U.

Sadly QTI does not allow her to rejoin her father. Her father remains
dead in whatever universe she's in now. If she did do quantum suicide
for that reason, then that would be irony.
