Yet, here on ol' planet Earth, there is a phase lock
It's the old anthromorphic principal. There are lots of planets, some too big, some without a moon to stabilize, some with no heavy metals. If life is to arise and evolve enough to be intelligent it will be on one of the planets that is stable, that doesn't freeze or fry the inhabitants to extinction, and hasn't been hit so often by meteors that the life can't take a few million years breather. No, it's not surprising at all that Earth is such a special place. I'm also not surprised that the galaxy is not awash in old radio programs from alien cultures. There are a lot of things that have to be just right to result in 4 billion years of relatively stable evolution, and consequently the organisms that talk about such things are found in such a stable place.
