There’s a name for that: the Anthropic principle. And it is deeply unsatisfying as an explanation.
And does it even apply here? If the charge on the electron differed from the charge on the proton at just the 12th decimal place, would that actually prevent complex life from forming. Citation needed for that one.
I agree with OP. The unexplained symmetry points to a deeper level.
