We compare two competing theories regarding finite temperature wave-function corrections for the process $H \to e^+e^-$ and for $n+\nu \to p+e^-$ and related processes of interest for primordial nucleosynthesis. Although the two methods are distinct (as shown in $H \to e^+e^-$) they yield the same finite temperature correction for all $n\to p$ and $p \to n$ processes. Both methods yield an increase in the He/H ratio of .01% due to finite temperature renormalization rather than a decrease of .16% as previously predicted.
