Why do we have the particles "we have"
Hello, everyone,
"Reflecting on the extremely rare occasions in which we fundamentally reframe our understanding of the universe causes us to think carefully about the limits on the role of science. Science is the art of measuring and of developing models to produce predictions. Discussions about scientific models often provoke deeper questions about why the universe is in the condition it is in. What actually is electrical charge? Why is there a gravitational pull between objects? Why do we have the particles we have and not others? Science presses hard on these questions, closing in as far as it may, but ultimately questions about why things are as they are, as opposed to what they are, lead us into the realms of philosophy and religion. Science can clear away much of the falsehood on the way, but the ultimate questions of reality call more for acts of belief than scientific explanation. It’s a matter of opinion how far scientific models alone provide a full and satisfactory explanation."

In relation to the above underlined sentence, I have two questions as follows;
1. What did the author intend to express by unusual repeating the verb ‘have’, while I guess the 2nd ‘have’ implies ‘experience’?
2. Can I understand the abbreviated ‘and not others’ is fully recovered into ‘and we don't have other types of particles’?
Thanking in advance,
