    indeed:

    The new claims from the “CCHP” group, asserting that the Hubble tension can be resolved by an in-between value for the expansion rate, are very troublesome for two reasons. First, there isn’t even a paper (not even an unpublished preprint) to refer to, where others in the community can see their work. But secondly and perhaps even more importantly, (…)

        lol 😋 …
        Secondly (and now I say that from memory) that other group had a larger margin of error so their measurement should not be taken to disprove the Hubble tension.
