Ignorance of why the constants have the values they do doesn't imply that they are random or that none of them depend on the values of one or more of the others.

Further cutting edge physics...like string theory continue to suggest the possibility the universe could have been different.

Basically you can plug a wide range of values into our current physics and still be able to model coherent universes. Further there are more solutions to string theory then there our particles in the observable universe.

Lets assume for a minute that the universe could not be any different. What does that mean? It means that reality is fundamentally emergent complex. What would an eternal, fundamentally emergent complex reality look like?
