Don't have much to add, but I'm smiling like a goon with agreement.And the kicker is that when you make an energy budget for the whole universe, this "dark gravity" makes up 4x more of the universe than the stuff that you and I are made of. And stuff that is unknown makes me excited to be alive. Maybe this will be the solution to every issue we face as a people. Maybe it will be something we cannot use and exploit. Maybe it will be unknown for dozens of generations until we get a mind and the tools needed to say "Oh, that is what this force is."
