Anyone thinking wholes and parts are ontic categories is either a fraudester or a stupid philosopher (i.e. doubly fraudster). There is no such ontic categories. You construct new wholes to reveal the underlying fragments, you glue the fragments to uncover new wholes ad infinitum.

universal expansion leads to galaxies being too far apart to be seen from each other. the rest of the argument follows from this.

I think ou are treating expansion as a metaphysical thesis, not a claim made within a scientific theory. For science such ontic or ontological prioritizations are trivial and misguided. They are essentially the fruits of theories and yes, they are rival theories in this case.
