Spitzer is opening up the universe to all new spectrums of energy and it finds iron and silicon as far back in time as it can see, just like Hubble.
Ah but how is Spitzer finding these things? By looking at their photon emmissions. So if you want to prove your theory "counting photon emmissions" is OK but when anyone uses it to try to prove another one it isn't justified. Having ones cake and eating it.

Wrong, Hoyle did a large amount of work on on the steady state model and on thermonuclear fusion in stars. You don't need a big bang to have stars made of gas.

Personally I prefer looking at the composition of the Sun using methods of spectroscopy to examine what elements are present rather than examining meteors.
