>> Basically what they are saying is that gravity is not a ‘force’ it’s an ‘effect’.............

No, if I’m reading it correctly, there’s a camp that believes it’s an “effect” (emergent, not a traditional force) and a camp that holds that it’s a traditional force.

Each side has (different sets of) equations that describe how gravity ought to behave, but actual measurements of neutron gravity agree with what the “traditional force”
equations.

Therefore gravity IS a traditional force and NOT an emergent “effect”.
