“Earth just happened to be in close proximity to the right kind of supernova, making it unusually lucky.”
That’s one way to put it.
On the other hand - if one believes in evolution, why would a presence of phosphorous be one of the keys? Things would just evolve differently without it.

I have a feeling your definition of evolution doesn’t match the definition of evolution.
Things don’t just evolve around everything. Extinctions are common.
My question is, if the earth was substantially already formed when the supernova went, where is the remnant of that supernova today? They don’t go up in a puff of smoke.
