If you listen to some of the experts (professional scientists) about the matter, their language gets very iffy very quickly. Especially when they says things like "dark energy driving the expansion of the universe at a faster rate". The implication is that "dark energy" is causing an increase in motion without generating waste energy. What I find amusing though is the down vote. People don't seem to see the incongruity of the statements being made by these professional scientists and when something is sarcastically pointed out they just don't get it. In many ways, I think people have lost a sense of human about these matters and take themselves far too seriously. As for dark energy/dark matter being a patch, I would wholeheartedly agree. I suspect that we will see more and more anomalies appear to cause either more additions or a fundamental change to occur in how we describe the universe as we see it. It is fun to watch what is currently happening over very different fields of scientific investigation. I am thankful that I do not have to ascribe to any particular view as retirement, so to speak, allows me to read up and consider whatever fields take my interest at any point in time.
