23. If we adopt smaller mH+, e.g. ~300 GeV, the required ρct can be pulled down to perturbative regime, With small mH+ and ρct~1, b→sγ data forces ρbb and ρtt to be significantly smaller than κbb=2mb/v and κtt=2mt/v, barring cancellations, We do not pursue such special possibilities in this Letter.
