Regarding dark matter theories, thinking of dark matter and gravity as particle related is like thinking that the night sky is a painted dome. A comforting cave man thought. Gravity arises because mass causes time to pass at different rates in different regions of spacetime. And hence time variation is tied vice versa to gravity. I also suspect that over vast distances in space , time flow does not follow our models but there are regions of decent gradients over extreme distances tied to a primordial time variation scaffolding totally unrelated to but supplemented by cumulative matter migration gradients it itself helps to facilitate over vast spans of time. This itself will lense light just like gravity from "made up dark matter would" and would explain voids and the spiderweb structure of the universe. Time in the void flows faster than on its edges, the galactic spiderweb, and as more mass migrates to the spiderweb and is pushed together under it's own growing gravitational influence the bigger this time gradient becomes = the faster the void expands. For us light passing through this time gradient will shift just as if it was influenced by gravity. The void becomes bigger pushing on the web , time inside accelerating as the web on the opposite slows down clumping more and more matter together, slowing down further growing the gradient under its own growing gravitational influence. It's a self accelerating process from both sides via 2 mechanisms with a third underlying one which is the primordial time flow variation.

Eddit: thinking further such 4d space time variation would over unimaginable distances causes space time to curve on itself completely. Essentially if you are to travel for what is essentially an infinite distance in a straight line you would arive at the exact same spot in space time you started from.

I own most maps and bought this one too. 4TB SSD. The low level ground detailed is horrific, it makes Caucasus look like Germany.
