Very interesting! It’s a little unsettling to think that coupling constants can change over time, though. I’m looking forward to possible explanations of how and why that happens.

Is this related to the recent articles about how the “speed of the passing of time” has actually changed over time? Not sure if I understood all that correctly but I remember wondering if it was going to mess with carbon dating and estimates of the age of the universe

It is certainly a bold and interesting claim. Lets see if it pans out.
