This may also be related to why the strength of gravity is so much smaller than the other basic forces. All four should be roughly the same, but gravity is next to nothing by comparison. If most of the gravity is leaking, what we see is the small amount remaining in our universe.

Does the theory cover why it is only *gravity* that leaks?

Or is it that gravity is the only one of the four forces for which we can observe significant macroscopic effects on other massive bodies (i.e. galaxies) over astronomical distances?

I.e. strong and electroweak I wouldn't expect to notice affecting things however many gazillion light years away...

Which begs the question of the effects of that leaked gravity in the other dimensions. It also makes for interesting thought experiments on the possibilities of increasing or reducing said leakage.
