> Dark matter in particular strikes me as… “yes, obviously”.
Why? Historically there have been two "dark matter" theories prior to this one (we speculated non-visible mass in a place to explain motion of celestial bodies). One turned out to be neptune. The other was vulcan, which turned out to be general relativity.
So historically, the inclination to invoke some form of "dark" matter is batting 50/50. im not sure i would put 50/50 into "obvious" territory
