Hum... We inhabit that temperature exactly because it allows for a wide range of chemical reactions in a controlled fashion.

The Anthropic Principle is not luck.

We are lucky that those interesting things are possible. We are also unlucky that many interesting things are not possible. But given that they are possible, it was almost inevitable that most of them would be possible around us.

It's also not an absolute. We don't actually know how common life is in environments significantly different from ours, so the part about "wide range of chemical reactions" is just our conjecture.
