Well one of the comments is from Dr Wagner, a physicist.
> Dr Jenny Wagner, a German cosmologist, physicist and author based at the Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics in Helsinki, told The Irish Times Gough has developed “an interesting idea”.
It does read like science fiction, however, his theory did predict some of the recent JWST findings.
> The “JWST is smashing all existing theories” seems to be repeated a lot, is there anything at all behind that claim?
There definitely is. The early galaxies and super heavy black holes that JWST is discovering don't match the existing cosmological theories at all.
