So:
(a) Spin-0 demanded by relativity
(b) Weak Isospin-1/2 demanded by observations (we don't have two electromagnetic forces)
(c) Low mass demanded by quantum triviality
(d) Interactions fixed by quantum mechanics and relativity.
So the Higgs has to look like this or quantum field theory would be wrong in some way.
And now we've found a boson with exactly those properties.
Sorry for the understatement, but just wanted to say... good job! :]
