I'd also like to know how this hypothesis accounts for observed differences in metallicity in different aged populations of stars. e.g. If the age of the observed universe is infinite, we should expect to find few (or no) metal-poor stars. Furthermore, current BBT explains the proportions of elements found in the universe (dominated by hydrogen and helium and a lesser amount of lithium synthesized during the BB, with heavier elements synthesized from stellar fusion and gravitational collapse).

I would expect that we'd find a hell of a lot more heavy elements in an infinitely old universe.
