Special R and General R are not the same thing.
No — and that observation does not contradict my point. More important, it is general relativity that describes gravity, and it is gravity that is not reconciled with quantum mechanics. Modern physics has stalled on that problem and is unable to offer definitive models of the cosmos and of high energy physics. Perversely, the goal of a Theory of Everything seems to recede the more we learn about the universe and the smallest components of matter.
