Dark energy might be neither particle nor field. Everything else in the universe is either a particle or field. Dark energy behaves as neither, and it may be a property inherent to space itself.

We knew that. But propose into public. That is a fine thing.

Also no lepton emits a field. Which should be way more fascinating.

We also liked you to call this mass defect we as well as you can follow "mass defect" not "dark energy".

There is nothing dark about it just because we don't understand it so far.

Train your thesaurus, mr. physics.
