The only well-known interpretation of QM that is experimentally indistinguishable--in theory--from MWI is Bohm's Interpretation. And I think it would be a difficult row to hoe that Bohm's Interpretation is simpler than MWI, as Bohm's universe contains the MWI universe as a subset in the form of pilot waves that never collapse. I.e., the only difference between MWI and Bohm is that in Bohm, one of the "worlds" is granted reality, while the others are not.
Of course, there's nothing in MWI that grants all the worlds reality either. Someone can certainly remain agnostic about that. E.g., Stehphen Hawking has said that MWI is obviously true, though he is agnostic on the reality of the other worlds.
