I love that there are people far more educated than me who are also paid to explore these topics.
A while ago I was pretty certain that gravity was emergent and was caused by Gluon Colour Confinement. Here was my incredibly naive rationale:
Assumption for the purposes of this idea that gravity is not an absolute, gravity is an emergent phenomenon.
My logic
Gravity around a black hole
Photons can't escape
Heavier particles and even molecules can't escape
Gravity around a planet sized mass
Photons can escape
Heavier particles and even molecules can escape
Gravity is not a force that acts at a distance (absolute)
Spacetime is being dragged into any object with mass (emergent)
---
We are not being 'pulled' into the earth
We are being 'kept under' by a shower of space time being consumed
---
What causes this 'consumption' of spacetime around objects with mass?
Gluon color confinement
