The principle of sufficient reason states that everything must have a reason or a cause. This is not a principle to lazily toss aside to avoid some more difficult question, it is a foundational idea.

Our understanding of the world (aka science) is largely based on causality, and if things existed without any cause or reason, our understanding of "science" would probably be very different.

(I'm not a physicist, but this is how I understand things.)
