Look Closer:
There is no "extra mass." There is just stiffening space.

The same mechanism occurs at the largest and smallest scales.
1️⃣Macro: Galaxies spin faster than Newton predicted.
2️⃣Micro: The W-Boson rebounds harder than the standard model allows.

The data isn't wrong. our assumptions are.👇

"Dark Matter" is just the structural overhead of the lattice. Geometry dictates a 5:1 ratio of Structure (Edges) to Signal (Nodes). This predicts the Radial Acceleration Relation (RAR) perfectly without invisible halos.

Gravity isn't curved nothingness. It's Refraction. Mass (a topological knot) pulls on the vacuum lattice. This tension compresses the nodes, increasing the Refractive Index (n). Light bends because it moves slower in denser geometry. n = 1 + 2GM/rc^2.

This "Steep Decline" is the geometric signature of vacuum elasticity.

TQR models space as a lattice, predicting your exact anomalies:
1. Shallow Core: Lattice saturation = no cusp
2. Steep Decline: Tension relaxes away from the mass = no halo
