Subject: YEC magnetic field claims

Does anyone know details of the rapid magnetic field decay model? I'm
looking at a claim that it better matches observed magnetic fields in
the solar system than the purported conventional dynamo model. I know
enough about paleomagnetism to know that the rapid decay model is wrong
for Earth history, but don't know details about Mercury or other
planets.
