Ordinary matter and energy are believe to be manifestations of each other. E=mc^2

That may be so, but the article is about cosmologists' efforts to unify so-called 'dark matter' and 'dark energy' into a single something.

I see it as just another attempt to force reality to bend around their ad hoc poppycock theories.

"Mass-energy equivalence states that mass is concentrated energy. In his theory of special relativity Einstein formulated the equation E=mc^2. There is a tremendous amount of energy in mass. A 20g marble contains as much energy as a 500 kiloton hydrogen bomb, but this energy is very difficult to release. It can be released through matter-antimatter annihilation, when matter and antimatter come together. Nuclear reactions can be understood to release so much more energy than chemical reactions because of the mass changes."
