Eh, going to put it in a reply just to be safe, in case anyone really cares about a 6 year old book

It's pretty major spoilers to say that this trope is even used in the book. But Anathem, the book by Neal Stephenson, completely ruined alternate universes for me. The way that they work in the book is just so clever and so incredibly well tied in to the rest of the book and the universe of the book that it actually kind of surprises me when another book or movie doesn't use it. It actually makes a kind of sense - even a handwavey kind of sense - in a way that alternate universes almost never seem to do, for me.

And it's also executed very well within the book itself IMO which helps. The one line about the Faraday cage is just such an amazing moment.
