The most accepted hypothesis vs The most retained hypothesis

Both phrases are grammatically correct, but they convey slightly different meanings. 'The most accepted hypothesis' implies that out of several hypotheses, this one is the one that has received the most agreement or approval. On the other hand, 'the most retained hypothesis' suggests that this hypothesis has been kept or maintained more than others. The choice between the two depends on whether you want to emphasize acceptance or retention.
