Dark matter, if it exists and judging by the ways galaxies rotate, isn't
distributed right either. It would have to itself be unaffected by
gravity
while affecting non-dark matter, but organize itself into halos around
galaxies for some unknown reason.

So the dark matter theory is still extremely problematic... Hm.


Well, there's no rule that says the universe can't be extraordinarily
strange, so dark matter theories could be perfectly right. The universe
doesn't have to organize itself in ways we can figure out.




Newton works but is wrong too. All we really know is that our theories
work
on a planetary scale, but not on a galactic scale.

So you agree that there are still quantum leaps to be made for our
inadequate standard models.


We have much more to learn, yes.







Looking at my briefly stated theory in
another post in this thread, do you think it might have potential?


Not even a little bit.

Newton is all but indistinguishable from 'truth' in the realm we experience.
General relativity is indistinguishable in a wider realm, and within the
Newton realm looks all but identical to Newton. The ultimate truth must
look like Newton in Newton's realm, and general relativity in the general
relativity realm. Yours doesn't look like either.
