I mean, AUT might be a white supremacist or a serial killer or a priest or like to wear dresses or be the founder of a death metal band, or even an AUT Merzbow. Some of these things I would probably THINK of changing, but why would I and who am I to do that? I don't know how his life, in his universe, is gonna change if I do that. Might be better, might be worse. Can't play God.

True. I'd also add that the not knowing the possible outcomes of your outcomes could be reason enough to stay away from your alternate self just to make sure nothing happens to both you and your alternate self.
I'd also like to add that i'm happy to see people getting into this conversation. This is something even before the thread idea came up that I had a bit of interest in, and it's interesting to see other perspectives.
