No, you completely miss the point. We already know the cause of this

Point taken.

What do you make of the Tajmar experiments? Cold fusion redux? A
breakthrough discovery? Something in between? If other teams verify
their results, it's back to the drawing boards in cosmology and
particle physics, methinks.


Really difficult to say. If it is not experimental mistake and the
results are verified, then the one has to recognise that superconduction
is a quantum mechanical effect and is not fully understood. The
implication then is that it is something which will be very difficult to
analyse in a theory of quantum gravity which we do not yet have.
