I'm just a layman, so I may have misunderstood Sabine's explanation, but to my knowledge Dark Matter, as a theory, is fundamentally different from Superfluid Dark Matter. In the latter, there's a new kind of force explaining why MOND, in certain cases, works. She notes at the end of the third video I listed above that Superfluid Dark Matter should be considered a combination of both Dark Matter and MOND. I would recommend taking a look at her video, it's short (about 6 mins) and I found it quite clear. Anyway, this is far from a solved problem, and no theory is sufficiently developed to be the last word on the subject. |

To to be able to fit with the CMB measurements, at that scale this theory behaves exactly like a normal dark matter, so there is still 5 times more dark matter than a baryonic matter.
So it's just "more complicated" at the galaxy level than a normal dark matter, to fit with these measurements "better" too: it involves an "additional force" there. That also means, considering everything together, it's nothing that should make happy those that consider the normal dark matter "unintuitive."
