I think what OP might've been alluding to is the idea that phenomena like dark energy could have a more elegant explanation that is the result of emergent behavior at large scales. Just like magnetism was originally seen almost like magic, but it was later realized that it's simply an emergent property of the electric force i.e. electromagnetism.
- deanCommie 6y agoExactly, thanks for clarifying that better than I did! i wonder if there is a possible way to measure that. It does seem not crazy that if the laws of physics are completely different at nanoscopic scales, they would also be different at gigascopic ones?
