Important Math Question

[Cyrien]

And Dark Matter theory is the perfect example of theories growing larger than maybe they should. It is the most largely accepted theory currently. But there are several other theories just as valid and accurate in the predictions for the actions of the universe that we can observe. They differ in what causes that and in their predictions for what we can't observe.

Yet Dark matter and energy is almost always what gets brought up. I know that we normally preface it as "this is just a theory" and quite correctly but the fact that we don't even bring up the others is itself a disturbing trend. If we don't even look at the alternatives will we notice when it starts being more accurate than the mainstream?
