But, if that's how you choose to present it, there's not much harm in it, as long as you've clarrified as you have. And, I did read your material. I just had further questions.
Now, and as you have in other posts agreed, we have to figure out the exact wave dynamics of the differences of the out-expanding matter, and the out expanding space/aether, and the incoming aether/em waves, or whatever, to thoroughly define the true fundamental gravity actions... That I think is a bit complex, and many physicists are working on this through quantum gravity. I think this is the highest possibility of success, area...
Are you familiar with the physicist's/scientist's name who worked out just such an idea, in the early part of the last century? It was to do with the entire motion dynamics of all bodies, internal and external motion and momentums. I've lost that information...

Granted, 'gravity is the 4th dimension' is an unorthodox manner of presentation, though I would ask it to be borne in mind that it is the titular introduction to
an unorthodox series of conclusions: based on the orthodox.
Encounters with those who would take issue with the definition of time and motion (timotion) as being translatable as a dimension are not unusual.
As you are well aware, I have learned from your other posts, linguistics often plays an important role in communicating what we mean.
Upon reading or hearing 'gravity is the 4th dimension', a lot of folks disagree, introducing the statement 'time is the 4th dimension'.
The point is, it is acknowledged in such disagreements that timotion is a dimension, 'because Einstein proved it'. Yes. Precisely.
So there is this schizoid perspective that (gravity is) timotion 'isn't a dimension', accompanied by (the 'argumentive') acknowledgement that Einstein proved it is... ('I thought time is the 4th dimension'...)
"Gravity is the 4th dimension" is merely another approach to confirming the same 'acknowledgement'. The unprecedented expression is alien to the uninitiated, who characteristically take vacant - self contradictory, and often aggressive - issue with it.
I encourage you to read my auto-bio blog on
'How I became the world's #1 Einstein Groupie.' I consider it both entertaining and educational.
Would like to know what you think of it.

The only specific names that come to my mind are Boltzmann, Planck and Einstein, although, as you probably know, there's an entire retinue of scientists who were working on that key issue, in - and ever since - the immediate post quantum mechanics era.
I consider my work to be a contribution toward the expressed objective, whereas, my work is not accepted in (generally unknown to) the mainstream ('Obviously corporeal matter is not expanding' - meanwhile, the entire flocking spatial universe is expanding,
as a result of and beginning with the accelerating expansion of the denser forms of matter, going on to extrapolate into the expansion of electromagnetism at right angles from 4-D matter), let alone being utilized as a factor of resolution.
Beginning to sound like you and I are independently working on the same row of ducks...
