The article introduces a dynamic cosmological constant in the current ΛCDM cosmological model to account for some data from the James Webb telescope. The new model would have the age of the universe at ~27 billion years.

This is interesting. Unfortunately some popular science magazines are already presenting it as a fact...

Frustrating part of science is people don't understand it's a journey and not a destination.
