Yes, I was surprised to see that there is no mention of the Anthropic Principle (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle), which describes exactly what you're saying.

Of course, other kinds of life are possible, which would require other "just right" conditions - but in that case, we'd all be living in that universe, marveling at those coincidences!
