I believe there are multiple lines of evidence to suggest properties of dark matter is inconsistent with it being baryonic matter.   As far as I know we have only ever encountered or measured baryonic matter in all of our inquiries into nature EXCEPT where mapping of distribution of mass based on inferred Gravity is concerned.   Does that not make dark matter quite exotic as far as our experience goes?

I'd tentatively mention neutrinos as an already known form of non baryonic dark matter. In light of this, a "some more of that please, maybe more massive" doesn't appear all that exotic




I stand corrected regarding neutrinos. Worship  Big Grin

but it I think "maybe more massive" fits "exotic" since it is backed by no other evidence or direct detection.
