    $\begingroup$ Cosmological redshift could be one point but it does not verify the big bang. It does hold true for other theories such as steady state. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ It does not directly verify the big bang, but it does imply expansion, which is thought to be a result of the big bang. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Yes. But the main point is it is true for other theories also. Baryon acoustic oscillators are more prominent proof of the Big Bang than cosmological redshift. But yes It is worth mentioning that's why I have also suggested that at the end. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ I agree about the other bits of evidence - BAO is pretty solid proof as well. $\endgroup$
