Default It seems that as Dark Energy increases, Dark Matter decreases astime goes on

I don't see how they can conclude that. If they expect to see Dark-Matter-as-WIMPs, then interactions will reduce the number of WIMPs in forward time, and they'd see exactly this. If Dark Matter is really just heavily ionized normal matter, as the Universe heats (in reverse time), less ground state matter should be visible, so it would look like an increase in Dark Matter.
