Hi fredrick,
Einstein had similar ideas when creating his theory of gravity, and it works in a flat spacetime, but eventhough the effects are similar to hurricanes and tornados, the cause has to be different because the universe is non-directional.
A hurricane or tornado is surrounded by dimensions allowing the vortices to form
toward the bottom, relative to the earth, but in space itself there is no relative bottom for a vortex to form toward. This is why I propose the functioning is magnetic, not just to change what doesn't have to be changed.
Most modern scientists don't consider spacetime as extensions of non-dimensional points, but rather it is considered a priori, and the focus is always on things taken for granted. That things are there, and therefore the focus is on the effects produced by them which in turn dictates first philosophy, instead of starting out with first philosophy.
So, the bucket example is a good example to depict this, being based on a macroscopic system, but laws have to function the same at all scales to be universal and electromagnetism is the only force that can apply.
The functioning is explained here:

I've emailed Geoff Haselhurst regarding this because he's working on wave-structure gravity which is not completed yet. Maybe you can email him as well, I think your idea might be more in tune with his.
Ed Witten too thinks along similar lines with his m theory, and he is considered to be the brightest of theoretical physicists. Yet, I prefer to think in terms of centripetal acceleration accumulating to result in ordered effects, with the quantum and sub-quantum causes merely being too fast to follow from our comparative scales.
