Why'd it have to be MOND?

Abstract: I want to take another step back in perspective from the last post to say a few words about what the radial acceleration relation (RAR) means and what it doesn't mean. Here it is again: This information was not available when the dark matter paradigm was developed. We observed excess motion, like flat rotation curves, and inferred the existence of extra mass. That was perfectly reasonable given the information available at the time.
