I'm not sure what your intended point is here, but what you say does help to
illustrate the point I made in my earlier post regarding the inconsistency
of ID's strategies in cosmology and biology.
Cosmology: The PRESENCE of cosmological fine-tuning is declared to be
evidence for ID.
Biology: The LACK of biological fine-tuning is declared to be evidence for
ID.
