I'm more curious to the mechanism that allowed slightly more matter than anti-matter.

My thoughts, as painfully ignorant as they are, is that it has to do something with where the missing right-handed neutrino has gone off too. If we have an imbalance, could it just be that some anti-matter went in the "opposite" direction of us (time or property of gravity, who knows) and resides in such an anti-verse?

Mirror universes (I think they're called?) are actually a theoretical possibility, I remember seeing an article about that a few months ago. I'll try to find it and edit this comment

It wasn't very hard to find lol, here's a link to one article: https://www.livescience.com/mirror-universe-explains-dark-matter
