So, when I saw that article/paper, I knew what the "First Dark Matter Galaxy Found" was! A New galaxy that had been born sometime in the last 1 year to possibly 100 to 300 thousand years depending on how long it takes to cool enough to follow basically the same timeline the Big Bang says that it took for Hydrogen atoms to become 'stable', which is 300 thousand years in the Big Bang timeline. And at the same time the SMBH is gathering the Hydrogen into the galaxy shape you see for the Ghost galaxy, until the core can 'fire up' and begin the star making process.

Except that you haven't answered Cougar's question. That is, you haven't provided any evidence that there
is a black hole at the center of the dark galaxy. And, for the ghost galaxy and others, you seem to be implying that the shape of the galaxy is dominated by the black hole. That's not actually the case. Although the central black hole is pretty massive, it's still a drop in the bucket compared to the rest of a galaxy. The stars orbit their common center of mass.
