Can it? I earlier linked to a mutliverse paper where the authors make a prediction, namely that parameters should be pushed towards catastrophic boundaries in parameter space by the a priori probability distribution. We live in such a universe, and the recent Higgs boson discovery has provided us with yet another instance where this seems to be the case

Maybe you can dumb it down for me a little bit as you are talking over my head. But I need to ask what good is a paper that makes a prediction using a theory that can predict anything?
