I know that's what you meant, but it still seems to be a wrong-way- round argument. Even if those constants were different, whatever the universe described was like (assuming there was at least some form of matter and some form of chemistry) might be able to form life on one tiny speck amongst all its vast space, and that life might say "isn't it amazing, this universe seems perfect for life". To take Douglas Adams' puddle a step further, it's like a shower of rain in the middle of the Sahara and a tiny puddle formed in a hollow of rock saying that it seems to fit the hole perfectly, even as the rest of the desert is parched and the puddle itself is evaporating in the sirocco.
