Fine tuning is as bad a term in science as natural selection.
It’s not that the universe consciously had some tuning nor that nature consciously selected traits for life to evolve with, but rather it gives the “appearance” as such.
Language is already a piss poor means of communication of ideas. The fact a lot of arguments break down to semantics is evidence of that. So it’s not surprising to see creationists and theists think fine tuned implies Goddidit.
