“Doubly Special Relativity”
Sounds like democrat club or something.
Q: Why did Albert Einstein cross the street?
A: To get away from Niels Bohr. But when he got to the other side Bohr was
there also.
Why do I always read these things? All they do is make my head hurt.

Bump!
I don’t think gravity is quantifiable in the material sense. Being (assumed) a function of space-time itself would necessarily preclude it from combining with the corresponding matter based theories. I don’t expect the discovery of gravitons in my lifetime. Just a hunch.

But if spatial density is variant, then so too are units of distance - including the Planck Length.
I’m sticking with Occam’s Razor and assuming the gravitational lensing observed and associated with hypothetical dark matter is due, not to “dark matter”, but to variation in spatial density.
If space is to energy as energy is to space, then it is reasonable to assume there are areas of space where the energy density is not sufficient to manifest the strong forces required for the formation of matter - but still strong enough to manifest the weak force of gravity, observable as gravitational lensing.
