We assume that the universe is expanding at the same rate in the same direction and everywhere.

I think this Hubble value should be renamed with new name instead of constant. It seems that it is not constant in time and / or not homogenous in the entire universe. The other aspect, it seems that Penrose was maybe right with the cyclic universe.

So many studies try to test if a specific hypothetical is the singular explanation for the divergence of values for the Hubble tension--a simple silver bullet solution. After so many "simple" solutions have been eliminated, I'm starting to wonder if there is an interplay of multiple factors. It would require a massive meta analysis of the proposed factors to figure out which ones , and to what degree, could create a cohesive model to explain it. That would be a huge undertaking, to say the least. Any combinations with mutually exclusive factors would be eliminated from consideration, simplifying things somewhat.
