As light travels through the Universe, it interacts with the matter within it, and with electrons in particular. (Remember, light is an electromagnetic wave!) If the light is polarized in a radially-symmetric fashion, that’s an example of an E-mode (electric) polarization; if the light is polarized in either a clockwise or counterclockwise fashion, that’s an example of a B-mode (magnetic) polarization. Detecting polarization, on its own, isn’t enough to show the existence of super-horizon fluctuations, however.
Also, it is long, yes, but it doesn’t repeat itself like most Ai written articles. I’d say the author is just taking their time to spell the concept our in detail. Could have been said quicker and more efficient, I’ll agree on that tough.
CCC has been firmly rejected by the author Ethan Siegal. Ironically the title of this article seems to contradict his posted article. There is no actual contradiction though. Siegal rejects CCC and says that cosmic inflation is now the mainstream theory.
Isn’t it talking about it here?

It does repeat stuff which is what triggered me. BICEP2 was a satellite experiment that for a while seemed to have detected an effect predicted by a similar theory advanced by Penrose, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_cyclic_cosmology
