/*…pattern of polarization in CMB, which is uniquely sensitive to primordial gravity waves….*/
This is just a speculation – as nobody has detected gravitational waves yet, the primordial ones the less. To prove model by its assumptions is always a somewhat risky business.
From AWT follows, just the CMB waves are compactified “primordial” gravitational waves and expanded gravitons at the same moment. Therefore CMB cannot be sensitive to itself from semantical reasons.
