If for some reason the way they are set is the *only* way they can possibly be, the question becomes - why are we so lucky that the only way the universe can be is such that there is matter, and chemistry, and stars?

Conceptually, the latter is even more problematic than the former if you ask me...

Why would we be "lucky"? Wouldn't we be inevitable?

I found an easy conceptual segway in white light as an aprox to the unified state before inflation. No matter where you bend the light apart you get the same colors in the same distribution, in the same order.

All the unvierses are "pulled" out of the same stuff....with the same inherent forces/qualities.

Here's something to blow your minds: The quantum wave functions with sharp energy/angular momentum



And yes, the energies have integer ratios, so you would get harmonic chords out of them if you played them in superposition
Also, I'm sure they look like something someone once drew in their Ashram.

I hope I haven't burnt Arkies fuse with that

Stable electron "orbits"? Yep, seen those too. Interesting that they are hemispherical and confined to toroidal, balloon and bowl shaped clouds.
