This is a pretty interesting idea. I wonder if what we perceive as clumps of ‘dark matter’ might be or contain silent civilizations shrouded from interference.
Maybe there is some kind of defense dominant technology or strategy that we don’t yet comprehend.
The dark matter thought has crossed my mind too (and others have also speculated along those lines). Yet the fact that dark matter appears to have been present in the very early universe speaks strongly against it — at least when it comes to the stronger “be” conjecture, less so the weaker “contain” conjecture, which seems more plausible.
