If our universe began as a singularity, that 'object' would be the densest matter imaginable. Assuming uniform expansion from a point (unlikely) for millions of years, wouldn't we "see" in that period a huge, dense, expanding, solid object? Wouldn't it take billions of years for the universe to thin out enough to create hydrogen?
Isn't it more likely, therefor that stars are not the result of 'congealing' hydrogen (or black holes) but rather of solids expanding to a stage where they "burst into flame"?
Could dark matter be matter that has not yet reached this level of "volatility?"

A singularity has infinite density. At the istant of the big bang, all of the matter in the singularity was converted to light. Nothing existed but light. (Almost Biblical huh?) As the universe cooled the light started converting back to matter.
I don't think your "Dark Matter" theory hold up.

After it reached a size of 1mm it contained no matter it was an extremely dense area of space.
A "solid "may be a matter of definition.
All the essense of a universe like ours existed,we just had to wait for it to mature!

When the universe began, it was only radiation. It would have been too energetic for matter to form.
