"'These two results seem to indicate that the way supermassive black holes produce X-rays has remained essentially the same from a very early date in the Universe,' said Schwartz. 'This implies that the central black hole engine in a massive galaxy was formed very soon after the big bang.'"

Or perhaps not; maybe Big Bang cosmology is a great deal more convoluted that physicists would like to admit.
