Proton Mass Prediction - Proton should be Slightly Lighter - The Surfer was correct!

An earlier post I did on the trends of which way the constants should be varying over the years as they get more and more precise, and my proton prediction did not agree with the trend of the data 2010-2018.  However, there is a 2020 paper that in the most precise measurement of the proton to electron mass ratio and it indicates/hints at the proton should be slightly lighter (which agrees with my prediction):

“Intriguingly, the proton-electron mass ratio we have measured is in fact compatible with the recent measurements of the proton mass, which were unexpectedly smaller than previous reference values,” adds Koelemeij. “This means that the proton indeed seems to be lighter than we thought.”*
Here is a link to the post were the trend predictions based upon the polynomial (full Rydberg equation) were made:
