Consider that maybe existing brown dwarfs and the laws apparently governing them are the artifacts of an alien intelligence.
Or maybe dark matter are the waste left after all useful energy has been extracted from the normal matter.
Or maybe our current models of supernova explosions fail because they don't account for the alien intelligences using them for their purposes.
How do you tell natural from artificial? What would be a generic artifact of any powerful optimizer?
