> And that’s okay! Unless dark matter happens to be of a certain mass with a certain interaction cross-section, none of the designed experiments are going to see it. That doesn’t mean dark matter isn’t real, it just means that dark matter is something else than what our experiments are optimized to find.
That's the rather underwhelming conclusion. And it's wrong insofar the size argument is not certain, but depends trivially on the distance of observation. Otherwise I'd like to know what magical number we are talking about.
