Yes, ok, so the wording of the phrase you quoted is incorrect, however it was hard to word without using the word "prediction." Note that, up until then, I did not say the standard model predicts the ratio of the light elements to be...

However, again you've missed the main point of my post, and picked up on a minor detail. I'll try again. In your opening post you say This ratio cannot be explained by current theories of cosmology. I have then provided links for you which show that the standard model does explain these predictions. So, where is your quibble? I have no problem with you questioning something if you have some evidence to back it up.

If you think that the assertion you make in your opening post is incorrect, there is no harm in admitting it!
