Has the Cosmology Standard Model become a Rube Goldberg Device?

Universe Today has a nice understandable article on the state of recent cosmology data and its effect on the Standard Model. Has the Cosmology Standard Model become a Rube Goldberg Device? "Today, observations from BICEP2, NASA and ESA great space observatories, sensitive instruments buried miles underground and carefully contrived quantum experiments in laboratories are making the Standard Model more stressed in explaining everything, the same model so well supported by the Higg’s Boson discovery just two years ago. Cosmologists concede that we may never have a complete, proven theory of everything, one that is elegant; however, the challenges upon the Standard Model and inflation will surely embolden younger theorists to double the efforts in other theoretical work."
