when did it start that the storytelling around every piece of physics news was framed as a controversy? I know it's been a while, but I feel like it wasn't this way 20 years ago...
The framing is not as contrived as you make it seem; the Hubble tension specifically is a genuine mystery and it is unknown why the indirect and direct methods don't corroborate when our theories otherwise indicate they should.
