IMHO a better analogy is the optical Fourier transform, see Steven Lehar's website:

Also see Aephraim Steinberg's website re weak measurement, and note the depiction of the photon going through both slits. When you detect the photon at one of the slits, the wavefunction is temporarily focussed or "collapsed" into a dot that goes through that slit only. Then when you detect it at the screen, the wavefunction is again collapsed into a dot. You don't need any multiverses or anything mystical to explain the double-slit experiment.

I agree with your last sentence.
