The Anthropic Principle is a working assumption.
I am talking about mathematical certainty.

Hi,
I'd say more that the Weak Anthropic Principle is a philosophic view, or at least it is for me. I don't so much like the Strong Anthropic Principle.
As for the rest of it, I do agree with you, we can't posit any range of values for the prevalence of life
elsewhere, we have nowhere near enough data.
By the way, I was commenting on Bert's thoughts mainly
Cheers
