Stockfish parameters aren't arbitrary, hardcoded or static. Vast amount of computational power went into "tuning" those parameters to see which combination of values in which stage etc yields the best outcome. In that sense it's not dissimilar to Alpha Zero except the latter does this a lot more at much higher meta levels.
