I’ve always felt like (as neither a mathematician nor a physicist) that “dark matter” is simply just something that suddenly makes a math problem work to model the universe-—and that in reality, that math problem just doesn’t work.

Is my theory even _possible_ here, or am I missing something. Really fundamental?

Well you have things like the bullet cluster that can't be explained by math being wrong.

Of course they can. The whole reason you think they can't is just more math.
