It turns out that, for life to be possible, the numbers in basic physics – for example, the strength of gravity, or the mass of the electron – must have values falling in a certain range. And that range is an incredibly narrow slice of all the possible values those numbers can have. It is therefore incredibly unlikely that a universe like ours would have the kind of numbers compatible with the existence of life. But, against all the odds, our Universe does.
I think that it's not just the "Goldilocks universe" but the"Goldilocks multi-universe"

I think if we constrain our ideas of life to our understanding of our set of physicial laws then we curtail any possibility of life elsewhere even though it may exist.

Life may exist in every universe, based on physics that is unlike our own...

OIC!
Would hate for interdimensional travelers to laugh at us for thinking that "our" maths are the only maths...
