What makes the case for dark matter more valid than "something must be wrong with the calculations/measurements" or indicative that there are laws/interactions we haven't figured out yet?
Since it can't be measured in anyway other than otherwise unexplained phenomena, it feels like, "We can't explain what's happening, therefor there must be dark matter,"
