Well... Some of those constants just appear to have an acceptable range
of 3 to 8 orders of magnitudes that allow star formation,
nuceosynthesis, planet formation, and the emergence of life. So much for
that «incredibly narrow» «sweet spot».

Earth happens to be in a sweet spot for H20 but not for a creature based on 
liquid CO2, NH3 or CH4, all of which participate in Earth bacterial 
metabolism. Humans generate the first and third.
