Another key test of Wiltshire's cosmological model comes from direct measurement of the time dilation effects that are actually observed within these cosmic void regions of space.

Wiltshire's model requires that they be of order ~1 or ~0.1 to have the needed effects to explain dark energy. Observationally, they're about one-millionth of that amount at maximum, which is woefully insufficient.

This is some very strong evidence that we shouldn't ignore.

It's okay to find ideas fascinating; I do, too. But when you want to put it to the test, you have no better recourse than to use nature's ultimate laboratory: the Universe itself. Whether you like the answer it gives you or not isn't as relevant as the answer the Universe tells us about itself.
