'A Higgs field that has gotten caught on a plateau not only suffuses space and energy but, contributes to negative pressure.

As far as energy and pressure are concerned, a Higgs field that's caught on a plateau has the same properties as a cosmological constant. A supercooled Higgs field impacts on the expansion of space - like a cosmological constant. It exerts a repulsive force that drives space to expand.

Although a supercooled Higgs field shares certain features with a Cosmological constant, they are not identical. A super-cooled Higgs field need not be a constant, however.

The time varying value of the Higgs field is what gave rise to the bang in (BBT), at about 10e-35 seconds'.

Is the above correct ?
