Siince Einstein knew NOTHING about the Voids (or SMBH's, Non-baryonic DM, Inflation), when he "Made his Biggest Blunder", he was most certainly postulating the Cosmological Constant as holding back the universe from collapsing to "A SINGLE POINT"!!!
Or expanding to infinite volume. At the time, the universe was thought to be static. Einstein's cosmological constant was a "fudge factor" to keep it that way. No more, no less.
