The suggestion from your article is that dark energy will dissipate everything, including our local supercluster, regardless of gravity.

But the cosmological principle, when applied to time, suggests that no period of time, like no position in space, is unique. So, if this idea is applied to the Big Bang, would that not suggest that dark-energy expansion must come to an end in order to allow for the Big Bang? I would cite the slow-down from the Inflation that occurred in the early universe to posit that the rate of expansion/contraction of the universe is subject to something other than gravity and dark energy.
