 Interesting paper, but I find her delivery annoying. It seems that we're supposed to like a scientific result to the extent that it argues against a theory she dislikes for unexplained reasons. And why does a lack of fine-tuning argue against a multiverse anyway?
 

That the universe isn't fine-tuned for life is pretty obvious.  The relevant fact is that life is fine-tuned for the universe.  Since the "multiverse" seems to mean different things for different people, and can't be seen anyway, I for one have no interest in it.
