Hi Geoff;
However, we have no way to predict the prevalence or otherwise, of life emerging in those environments.

In fact, all we can say is that the emergence of life in those environments is 100% guaranteed to be uncertain.

The Anthropic Principle is a working assumption.

I am talking about mathematical certainty.

Cheers
