I thought we did settle long ago that gravity, as we know it, is a useful, but not very meaningful or correct concept. Of course, as Richard Feynman says science has yet to come up with a single 'true' law. So it is not unusual to try to replace gravity with something better.
Unfortunately, this may not be it. The best (or perhaps, understandable) quote in the story is: "The end result was that everyone else didn’t understand it either, including people who initially thought that did make some sense to them"
