When the experimental data doesn't match the theory, just invent a new variable! Physicists are notorious for creating "dark" entities to make equations balance. Dark matter? Dark energy? Basically saying "something invisible must exist here because our math says so." It's like finding $20 in your account when you should have $0 and declaring "must be dark money!" instead of admitting you forgot to record a deposit. The progression from confusion to "eureka" with that sinister middle panel is physics research in a nutshell.
