Let me for the moment suspend disbelief and stipulate that everything
you said is true and accepted by the entire physics community, and that
you and your references have described a complete and self-consistent
theory worthy to be the successor to GR as the best theory of gravity.

In that context, please answer this one point:
My point is that one cannot possibly MEASURE the "gravitational force"
on an orbiting satellite.

Completely wrong once again.

So prove it, by describing precisely how one MEASURES the "gravitational
force" on an orbiting satellite. Don't give blank references to
unspecified literature, just give a basic description of the method. A
one-sentence statement of the basic principle of the measurement will
do. And please don't use jargon or undefined notation, but follow the
"colloquium test" -- give a description that is understandable to a
graduate student or postdoc not expert in the field.
