    If I take a relativistic frame of reference. If I take an ‘absolute’ non moving frame of reference, gravity shows up as a force. I use the later for calculating loads and statics, even though it’s technically not correct. And in that case gravity shows up as a force.

      I’m not trying to argue approximations. Physics is just approximations all the way down. But as a physicist, I also love arguing about technicalities, and that’s also kinda the point of science communities for me.
