Based on recent (not so recent now) data from the LHC we want to present a reinterpretation of the the recently reported threshold enhancement in top-antitop production at the LHC, we do this in an entire-function-regulated nonlocal quantum field theory. The main result show that the observed threshold excess can be made to fit by a data-driven nonlocal scale Λker and small RG effects, while keeping global QCD tests intact. We quantify and then contrast the properties of the heavyquark systems such as charmonium and bottomonium, highlighting the unique role of the top quark's decay width in shaping the phenomenology of toponium. We find that toponium becomes a powerful tool for both infrared boundstate dynamics and ultraviolet completion effects opening new avenues for precision tests of QCD.
