a simple but somehow-overlooked portion of physics that allowed them to build spacecraft that could instantly teleport across the galaxy Well, I certainly can't say you're wrong, lol. But science is so iterative. I realize that not all hypothetical species would follow the same tech tree as humans, but "skipping steps" seems so unlikely. But hey, there are a lot of planets out there. I suppose it can't be ruled out.
