"Here, as a last-ditch effort, we point out that disregarding the large angular scale polarization obtained by Planck, which allows for significantly larger values of the matter clustering parameter σ8, could lead to better agreement between Planck and JWST within the ΛCDM framework."

*Last-ditch*: a desperate final attempt = If this explanation doesn't work, they will give up 👍

"One matter density discrepancy to alleviate them all or further trouble for model"
"... or simply that further evidences are indicating that ΛCDM model is facing more difficulties to accommodate simultaneously all the current available observations."

Rising Tension.

Early Cosmicflows-4 result: R. Watkins+co-authors present an estimate of the bulk flow, the average velocity of the survey volume: about 400 km/s. This has an epsilonesque chance of occurring in the ΛCDM model with CMB derived parameters.
