Given the fact that the this alternative theory I promote gives the same
predictions as those given for the inflationary part of the BBT, I
sometimes have to wonder if it can even be considered a different theory
or is it just an advancement of the original one.

The theorys is still to new to have very much in the way of detailed
predictions however because it dose show how such things as neutron
stars can become universe like, its a reasonable question about what
would happen if heavy elements got into the original mix and if such
origins were not homogeneous. For example a neutron star with an iron
surface is such an example where one could ask what would happen as it
became a black hole and that in turn is universe like, would the
distributions of iron show up some place, would it be homogeneous and
why or why not. If it ends up with a random distribution, parts of such
a universe would appear as older if age were estimated only based on
heavy element distributions.
