Replace "perfect" with "likely optimal" and you get the general thrust of it without the deus ex machina.

"Because the world is the creation of a likely optimal being, it can achieve only the “best possible” state short of divine likely optimisation"?

If understood in a very mystic transcending meaning of "creation" maybe, otherwise it reads still like dogma to me.

I’m also reminded of quantum probabilities and expected outcomes— how possibilities converge to create reality, like quantum Darwinism. https://www.quantamagazine.org/quantum-darwinism-an-idea-to-...

That is a new quantum thing to me, but looks interesting, thanks.
