Can someone clear this up real fast for me

Also ITT discuss what field the niggers of science are.

It was just added as an additional parameter

like as if when
F(x,x') = m · x''(t)
wouldn't work for some experiment and you'd try to reconcile the experimental findings with a modified equation
F(x,x') = m · x''(t) · (1 + q·x'''(t))
where q is tiny, and for q=0 you'd obtain the old equation. It's an ad hoc change of the theory.

Modern theories, basically work like this:
>You make conceptional assumptions (e.g. the Lagrangian of the electromagnetic interaction has a U(1) symmetry)
>You construct a maximal theory that obey those assumptions (here, literally all possible terms that are U(1) symmetrical)
>You identify all parameters that emerge in your theory.

The cosmological constant is just a parameter that does not contradict the concepts of GR, so it's added, because it can be. I'm not an expert on GR specifically, so I'm not sure where exactly it emerges, but that's how it generally works.
