The fabric of the cosmos, as we understand it, comprises three primary components: 'normal matter,' 'dark energy,' and 'dark matter.'

Yeah, it makes more intuitive sense than "there's an entire class of matter and an entire class of energy that doesn't interact with the rest of the universe according to the rules we understand, so we can't see it, test it, recreate it in a lab, etc....but it barely explains a few things we don't understand kind of okay...kind of, so it's there."

Imagine you go to kick someone in the nuts, and instead they pull the uno reverse card and kick you with their genitals?
