Main steam Astrophysics isn't so sure that they got it right. In their writing I detect a lot of frustration with getting the models to fit the observations.
Having time speed up, along with increasing the rate of radioactive decay makes their models simpler. The motion of the nebula doesn't have to supply the energy for the system. So instead of spending a lot of their efforts on determining where the energy is coming from, they can explore the wider dynamics.
As long as they keep trying to get the the backwards traveling shock wave to generate the energy, they have tied their shoelaces together. The physics that they know will answer the rest, they just have to get away from using that model since it messes up everything after that.
