at a certain point, both mathematics and physics become so abstract they transcend any practical application
but let them have their fun

Modern physics deals with phenomena that is there and has effects but we do not know its cause, that's what dark matter is, we only know it through its effects, not its cause.

You might as well claim that you are studying the effects of God's ensemble of angels, then.

Is just how it is, we cannot know the nature of literally everything, physics deals with what we can say about nature, in other words we cannot solve every mystery but we can try to approach them

Either you admit that all of physics is just a model, with elements that have no substance beyond beyond breaking down a giant formula describing a certain pattern, into manageable mental units, or you admit that "dark energy" is an ad hoc patch. You can't have it both wals.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandiosity
>In the field of psychology, the term grandiosity refers to an unrealistic sense of superiority, characterized by a sustained view of one's self as better than others, which is expressed by disdainfully criticising them, overinflating one's own capability and belittling them as inferior; and refers to a sense of personal uniqueness, the belief that few other people have anything in common with oneself, and that one can only be understood by a few, very special people.[1] The personality trait of grandiosity is principally associated with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), but also is a feature in the occurrence and expression of antisocial personality disorder, and the manic and hypomanic episodes of bipolar disorder.[2]

why should we take this to mean "dark matter exists and makes up 90% of the universe" rather than our understanding of gravity being wrong?

we just don't know yet, there are many hypotheses
saying einsteinian gravity is wrong is perhaps more drastic than saying there is some matter we can't see

We can, and we do, but if "god of the gaps" makes your monkey brain feel better, by all means believe whatever you want.

There are attempts at considering modified gravity models at long distances. The thing is that we know the theory of gravity to work well at scales that aren't too small (quantum) and have good evidence of gravity working well at the planetary/solar system level. The modifications are done at the galaxy scale typically with a harshly damping Yukawa factor. This seems strange to need modifications at such large scales and everything else is fine.

You can't, midwit. No matter how much your monkey brain clings to its primitive religion.

excellent bait but claiming that he is placing himself above others is nonsense when he is explicitly referring to humanity as a collective that he is a part of
