This is more or less OK as far as it goes. However, note that the
puzzle with low multipoles is mostly LACK of power. So, you would need
foreground objects which somehow make the already smooth CMB even
smoother at scales of several degrees to several tens of degrees.


Another interpretation of the CMB low multipoles anomaly
is not in the foreground but in a non homogenous background:
that there is something in the BBN process
that generates a non continuous or clumpy phase
incongruous with and perturbing the CMB continuous spectrum
at low multipoles.
