   I propose that the classical anthropic principle, for which the   
   presence of *living* observers in a "fine-tuned universe" directly   
   explaines the universe's suitability for life, as hostile universes could   
   not produce observers, can be extended to account for many properties of   
   life.   
      
   The quantifiability of the macroscale. For which numerics apply in a   
   fashion that takes well to biological neural networks, is an intrinsic   
   property of reality that allows for the development of intellegent life.   
   This ^ is taken as mathematical skill transcends species boundries (not   
   learned) and must therefore have a neurological basis.   
      
   It is taken, that had realities' intrinsic qualities been more complex   
   or convoluted, that intellegent life would have been harder to develop.   
   This ^ is under the assumption that physical constraints remain equal in   
   this reality. As a result, neurons would have the same physical and   
   biological constraints and tradeoffs, leading to the same behaviour   
   above.   
      
   It is taken that an early and easy quantificationary ability of early   
   intellegent species is critical to technological bootstrapping. Which is   
   the man-made selective pressures insubstantiated by its development of   
   its own technology (such as fire, or the wheel), which then go-on to   
   influence its own evolution in a re-enforcive manner.   
      
   Others as well. Lot more, too tired.
