The assumption that all energy is kinetic has resulted in important phenomena with unknown mechanisms: stellar rotation curves, increase in mass with increase in velocity, constancy of photon velocity, and the levitation, suspension and pinning of superconducting disks. 

In addition, the reason for the existence of the fine structure constant is unknown, the value of the proton-electron mass ratio is unexplained, the spectra of atoms larger than hydrogen cannot be derived, and there is no proof or disproof of cosmic inflation. 

All of the above issues are resolved by the existence of intrinsic energy.
