This is such a weird comment. It's like an attempt to trivialize the article by stating something completely nontrivial with a lot of confidence.
The anthropic principle is the most plausible answer we have to the honestly quite reasonable question of "if all of these things are so unlikely, why did they still all happen?", so why not emphasize it more?
The idea is also pretty powerful in ordinary/non-metaphysical contexts in the form of survivorship bias, and something useful to keep in mind whenever listening to somebody successful post-hoc explaining how all of their conscious past decisions inevitably led them to where they are.
