>>10999778>They're just placeholder names for "those two things we can't explain".this is the thing that bothers me to no end.
It is already making a huuuuge presumption to assume they have it down to just these
"two unknowns"
I have a very strong feeling there is much more to the problem and that many, if not all of our scientific models are wrong or incomplete.
In fact I would estimate that the current theories and models for gravity and electromagnetism, (light, electromagnetic propagation, etc) are missing some subtle, yet very critical things that would cause this so-called problem of the models of the universe that make them want to imagine some "dark matter" or dark energy"
the only reason they imagine these hypotheticals is because the mathematics of the current models tell them there is something wrong, something missing.
its like having a bad speedometer in your car that tells you your travelling 2x as fast as you think you are, and then instead of checking the gauge, you just assume it's perfect and go about all these ridiculous machinations and contrived formulas and imaginary hidden forces to make the bad sensor data fit everything else you think you already know for sure about physical reality
obviously we need theories, models, measurement, observation,
but this "dark" crap it's all a load of bollocks
