More precisely, life gives the impression that this universe is fine-tuned for life,

It does no such thing.

Of course it does, even cosmologists realise that! The reasoning is that without fine tuning, life in this universe would be highly unlikely to be possible, as there are many more ways of getting the wrong set of fundamental constants than of getting the right kind. Of course, that is an argument that disregards the multiverse (whichever kind it is).
