Try updating your dictionary to something more modern .. as well as your
physics.

How do you know that the missing weight is due to "mass is not
conserved"?

Particles have weight. The dark matter that is also released does
not.

Experiments measure quantities. In physics, nobody know nor cares
what they are quantities OF. When reasoning says it is impossible for
waves to be conducted by nothing (called "empty space"), that remaisn
true regardless of
how much our measurements reveal.

Measurements yield quantities. The quantities are not lies. But
until we know WHAT is being quantified, we know nothing about reality
other than the quantities themselves.
