It's a theory that is IIRC unproven, but also unchallenged. These developments might have transformed the hypothesis into a candidate for a theorem.

...Yeah I'll take decades of experimentation over one data point. If they can replicate this result consistently, then yeah maybe half the comments in this topic would be barely warranted, but at this point the weight of evidence is still too far in favor of the status quo.

I'm talking about the idea that information doesn't decay or succumb to entropy, which emerged as a way to try and explain the time traveling paradox of an eternally traveling piece of info in the real world and which has far-reaching applications.

I think, and I am entirely not sure about this, but the physics thermodynamic concept of entropy and the informational theoretic concept of entropy are closely related and that an increase in one is roughly isomorphic to an increase in the other. Either way though, you're just stringing one word after another without making any predicitons. What the heck do you mean by a theory to delete and restore matter? What kind of matter? Atoms? Exotic negative mass matter? Spontaneous formation of particle-antiparicle pairs due to the uncertainty principle what?

I think he's missing an explanation of how dark matter is potentially part of a zero-sum equation with the matter we can perceive but otherwise that's it.

...I'm pretty sure you just got dark matter confused with dark energy again. Dark Energy is part of Einstein's Cosmological Constant zero sum thingie, but you'll just have to tell me about the specifics of what that equation is supposed to say.
