In our theory, those two numbers are independent. They're like different knobs on the control panel of the uni ese. If you don't set them to be exactly opposite each other, then you don't get neutral atoms and we're just lucky. Or is there a deeper explanation? Is there a reason why these things are exactly opposite? For example, maybe they're built out of even smaller things we haven't yet discovered.
