The paper identifies solutions with light dark matter (mC = 0.5 GeV) that form massive dark matter halos (>4 M⊙) at ordinary matter radii similar to neutron stars, but does not specify the formation mechanisms, stability criteria, or observational distinguishability of these non-standard compact stellar objects from conventional neutron stars.

The paper introduces a previously undefined 'dark matter horizon' Rd inferred from equation (27) but does not provide independent physical justification for why dark matter should define a cosmological event horizon analogous to dark energy. Detailed investigation of the relationship between dark matter density distribution and the proposed horizon boundary is needed to distinguish this concept from existing dark matter halo models.
