If you did come up with an alternative explanation, you would have to reinvent just about everything. Ever seen what it would take for the flat earth idea to hold water? Yeah, that level of reinvention plus some more of that vibe.
But let’s say that in this alternate universe those wild models are actually true, valid and they end up producing a universe that looks like ours. Since it’s based on completely different physics, there will also be some strange differences. Even if those galaxies look like ours, it doesn’t mean that biochemistry or life would be possible.
