Reducing the gravitational constant decreases at fixed temperature. The helium sensitivity to the expansion rate has two effects: weak interconversion persists to a lower freeze-out temperature, leaving fewer neutrons, and the universe takes longer to reach the deuterium-burning temperature, allowing more free-neutron decay after freeze-out. Both lower the helium-4 abundance. In particular and .
