The observed universe is near-perfectly balanced between diametrically opposing runaway tendencies that would send it racing rapidly toward dramatic extremes, were it not for an unexplained suppression mechanism that somehow constrains it to this unexpected configuration.

The Goldilocks Enigma can also be called the “Goldilocks Constraint”, because the mechanism that produces our balanced universe is also a critical feature of our own local [3] ecobalances.  This commonality indicates that there is a direct connection between the mechanism that defines the structure of the universe, and our existence, in other words, and that commonality most naturally indicates that there may be a bio-oriented cosmological principle in effect that requires carbon based life to appear over a [4] specifically defined region and time in the history of the observed universe.

It is this cosmological principle that is willfully ignored by scientists [5] for reasons that have nothing to do with science, and logic dictates that this is the reason why physicists have failed to resolve the problem of the near-static yet expanding universe in all their many years of ducking the the obvious call for a bio-oriented cosmological structure principle that actually resolves the problem from first principles.  Considering how long and hard that scientists have tried and failed to resolve the problem any other way, one would think that they would be all over this, given even the most remote possibility that it is true, much less, the evidenced plausibility that we are actually faced with, which leaves one thinking that Copernican dogma still rules the minds of scientists who would rather not resolve the problem than admit that we might not be here by accident.
