They've thought of that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_Newtonian_dynamics

It doesn't really work. Overwhelmingly the evidence points to mass, which is gravitationally affected by other mass, and nothing else.

I know the mind rebels against the notion of invisible matter, but is it really so much more implausible than the invisible spookiness of gravity to begin with? If the scientific evidence points that way, your monkey-brain intuitions do not provide a reliable veto.
