Deus ex $H_0$ -- Is evidence for dynamical dark energy conditioned on early cosmology?
Astroboat summary
Some free-form reconstructions of the dark energy equation of state suggest that dynamical dark energy is the only explanation for the observed data. In this letter we argue that early Universe solutions to the Hubble tension (around or before recombination) generically cause the evidence for this claim to strongly reduce, establishing a tight connection...
