Well, before there was Dark Energy, there was a model that fit the data
too. That was the hot Dark Matter model, where the place of Dark Energy
was filled by neutrinos.


By "before," you mean pre-COBE? There are a lot of new data since
then.

If future data disagree with current models, the models will have to
change. That's how science works.


No, not pre-COBE, COBE data was already around, supernova data came
around later, and then they changed the interpretation of COBE & WMAP
data to fit the Dark Energy hypothesis.
