I wouldn't be too worried just yet. They're changing the goalposts all the time in so far as the numbers go, and in any case, they only have a fairly marginal understanding of how Pop III stars and galaxies form. The Universe is full of surprises, and we barely know enough to comprehend what we're seeing, despite all that we have learnt.
It'll be a case of "watch this space" for quite some time, yet
