It's one of the reasons why I groan at popular media's reporting of science.
This article is reporting on a paper that proposes a possibility of finding evidence of large-scale symmetry breaking from the data ".. in current and upcoming surveys such as those undertaken by Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, the Euclid satellite, and the Vera C. Rubin Observatory.... ". Yet, the article is trumpeting the "Incredible new evidence...." as if it has been found. This is similar to accepting speculation as the truth.
Over-selling and over-hyping science does no one any good, other than making it a click-bait.
