Alexey Burov, Lev Burov

TL;DR
This paper argues that the multiverse hypothesis and chaosogenesis are refuted based on the laws of nature, implying the question of why laws are as they are cannot be answered scientifically.
Contribution
It provides a philosophical critique of chaosogenesis and the multiverse, emphasizing the need for a selection principle to explain the laws of nature.
Findings
Multiverse hypothesis is refuted due to the laws of nature's precision.
Chaosogenesis is shown to be the only scientific explanation, which is then refuted.
The refutation implies the question of why laws are as they are cannot be scientifically answered.
Abstract
The full-blown multiverse hypothesis, chaosogenesis, is refuted on the grounds of the large scale and high precision of the already discovered laws of nature. A selection principle is required not only to explain the possibility of life and consciousness, but also theoretizability of our universe. The weak anthropic principle provides the former, but not the latter. As chaosogenesis is shown to be the only thinkable scientific answer to the question of why the laws of nature are the way they are, its refutation means that this question cannot be answered scientifically.
