Is there no chance these are coincidences? It gives me "Bible Code" vibes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible_code#Criticism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bibl

  Indeed, or the result of some specific starting conditions in the early universe. But I must assume that these cosmologists have already considered and discarded that. I'd just like to be able to read more about why that guess doesn't fit what they're observing.

    'Starting conditions in the early universe' is too vague to actually consider properly. To rise to the level of even thinking about accepting or discarding it, we'd need to know what sort of conditions we're talking about, how they might lead to what we're observing, and preferably also how they might have come about. It's a class of possible explanations, not an explanation itself.
