If we assume that String Theory (ST) gives a good description then the question is related to the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theory_landscape The number of theoretically allowed vacua (universes) is extremely large and that is one of the arguments against ST; the issue is to find ways to exclude as many as possible and to find relationships between different parameters so even more are excluded.
If this can be done and if we end up with only one universe then we are done. If there are more than one then there are different possible universes and then the question arise which of the suggested vacua that can give rise to life. The mathematics in ST is quite hard, so it will take some time until there is a solution. That is an argument against studying ST, there are many other areas to study with a better probability to get something interesting.
Upon hearing that ice is one of the few solids that is lighter than it’s liquid form, I wondered if God made the rule “All solids are heavier”. But then - the first winter happened, the ice sank to the bottom of the lakes and killed all the plant-life off.
“Oops - okay, everything except for water - solids will be heavier.”
That deathy thing at the end is a bummer.

This G-d guy seemed to know what he was doing - almost omniscient I might venture.
I would have skipped mosquitoes, Florida Wood Spiders, palmetto bugs (flying cockroaches), cockroaches in general - just gross, scorpions, black widows, brown recluse spiders, black mambas (no I’m not color conscious), rattlesnakes and anything in Australia that can kill you during everyday activities including sitting on the Loo down under.
Otherwise quite the intelligent design as far as I can discern. ;-)
