Yes -because there is no “how or why existence exists” therefore nothing to explain and therefore no mystery -we have been over this ground before.
…Can you think of anything in the universe that has been fully understood or explained that ...[text shortened]... explained” -if there is no such thing there then there is nothing there to be “inexplicable”.
this proves by point -“incapable of being accounted for or explained” obviously implies that for something to be “inexplicable” then there has to be something there to be “accounted for or explained” -if there is no such thing there then there is nothing there to be “inexplicable”.

What garbage!
Of course there is such a thing - that thing is existence - if existence has no cause then it's impossible to explain how it exists or account for it. It (existence) is obviously then inexplicable ( impossible to explain).
It's not the cause of existence that is inexplicable - it's existence itself. You have jumped too far.
Think about it simply. What is the "thing" that I am saying is inexplicable? answer --- existence yes?
Ok , existence has no cause or explanation , yes?
Ok , now re-read the defintion
***** "incapable of being accounted for or explained” ******
Is existence capable of being explained or accounted for? --answer ---------------NO
Therefore existence is inexplicable. Yes? Where is your problem?
Am I not being logical enough?
You have confused yourself here in your rushed attempt to argue against my position.
