TL;DR
how can lower density cosmic structures occur?
I can see how slight unevenness in density of the early universe could result in matter grouping due to gravity however I would think that this would lead to more focal regions of higher density and more disperse regions of lower density. I can't visualise a mechanism that would support development of focal regions of lower density.
