Hot off the press comes a paper that seems to my very amateur layperson's eye to confirm much of what I posted above.
The authors state
-that R1b in Ireland seems scientifically correlated with LP, such that they do believe the R1b spread was causation.
-That the most logical conclusion is that Beaker people were the transmitters.
-That massive immigration from population upheavals in the east was the likely reason for these new genes to enter Ireland, i.e., not a small number of elites.
