Here’s a bit of finetuning in the world’s laws that I just noticed. All the four fundamental forces of nature are conveniently local, in the sense that they drop off to nearly zero with distance. If any one of them weren’t local, the world would not be likely to be predictable to limited knowers like us.
I suspect it would also be more difficult for a universe to be life-permitting at all if, say, the strength of gravity increased exponentially as a function of distance!
