I have asked Lyndon this as well (he emailed me). He doesn't
seem to offer a mechanism, just the coincidence of values.

... You, I, and the "tired light" folks however, are
asking the question, "What if the Red Shift is NOT due to
velocity? What if it's due to some other physical phenomena
whereby light is shifted in frequency proportional to
intersellar distance?

One key to that will be finding an explanation that also
accounts for the stretching of SNe curves. That evidence
greatly limits your options:

Why is the stretch factor so close to w=1+z ?
