Those are very operational questions because that's not who is the best.

That is which person at which contract level will help the rest of the team I already have win more games, right?

And that's a very down-to-earth question.

And again, there, I don't think that you can just look at stats or skills.

You have to fit in with the rest of the team.

That's because it's a team sport, and I think that really matters.

Leo Behe says, In your interview with Alex O'Connor, you said that you don't find necessity to be a compelling explanation for the concepts of nature.

They could have easily been different.

I believe you also consider possibility to be an epistemic concept rather than an ontological one.

If so...

When you say that the constants could have been different, are you basically saying our knowledge underdetermines the values of the constants?

Or are you saying that you think we will not find deeper laws that the constants are derived from?

Or have I misunderstood you completely?

What I'm saying is, you know, I think about possibility and necessity in the language of possible worlds, right?

Following David Lewis and other people.

If you think that we can imagine the space of all possible worlds, and the problem is we can't, right?

That's too big a space, all possible worlds.

And the space of possible worlds is much, much bigger than the space of branches of a wave function in Everettian quantum mechanics.

In the branches of the wave function, you still have the same laws of physics pushing you around in each branch of the wave function.

In all the possible worlds, you literally have every possible world with all the different kinds of laws of physics.
