There are so many issues in your posts! I like your attempt to involve loads of stuff but it gets a bit confusing for me. We agree on some basics do we?
- The speed of light in a vacuum is 'c' approx. 300000km / sec
- Light speed varies in other materials (not really because it gets absorbed and rereleased at the quantum level)
- Gravity permeates the universe but weakly at distance (from 'well' sources)
- Electromagnetic fields permeate the universe also
- Time, distance and mass can be dilated by speed and gravity wells (dilated as in slowed, shortened or increased relatively depending on the subject)
- Any interaction with light is always at 'c'
- Light has a rest mass of zero
Do your ideas agree with these basics? there may be more added by others. It's just a suggestion to help you assess stuff. Just trying to be helpful. It's worth checking what I have said above on some trusted up to date media. I say trusted because anyone can make an error or tell lies etc.
At the end of the day it is fun, even Roger Penrose and Stephen Hawking engaged in wild hypothesis on this and that but always with a fact check in the end.
I know what you mean. I started from scratch because I felt that I was trapped inside a box with variables that contradicted each other concerning bent space explaining black holes and electromagnetic behavior.

I took these facts into account. Even the medium of outer space is not a perfect vacuum. The speed of light through a medium varies depending on the density and velocity of electrons in the medium. I also mentioned that if we use the speed of light to measure the speed of matter, then the limit of the reading-speed is tied to the speed of light which means we cannot use the speed of light to tell whether something is going faster than it because it would always return its limit.

I am suggesting that gravity is a nuclear-force bound well of electromagnetically reluctant mass, not by mass bending space. So ya, I'm outside that box which requires a major gear shift and can throw you off. If gravity is caused by the electromagnetic reluctance of neutrons, then the strong nuclear force would be required for gravity to pull charged nuclei together. The force of gravity appears "weaker" because an electromagnetically reluctant object is not electrically or magnetically tied to field, but rather encapsulated by it as the quantum particles generating the field seek Lorentz force points of least resistance effectively moving electromagnetically reluctant mass toward a predominant core where it preexists. If electromagnetically reluctant matter puts little warped pockets in the field then the field would become filled with an array of topographic resistance zones that drop off in strength with each other by 1/r^2. Intuitively this explains why a gravitational field drops off in strength at the same rate as an electric field because the electromagnetic field is doing the work. It also explains why a spinning gyroscope full of neutron dense matter exhibits drag and resistance to axial tilt. A spinning gyroscope can tilt over the edge of a table without falling off from gravity because the velocity of its mass affects the field and it must be interacting with the field for this phenomenon to be present. This goes even deeper into more subjects such as inertia and momentum.
- Time, distance and mass can be dilated by speed and gravity wells (dilated as in slowed, shortened or increased relatively depending on the subject)
I am suggesting that electromagnetism itself is responsible for the passage of time rather than the bending of space itself. Space itself without electromagnetic information is undefined. A day is the time it takes earth to spin once on its axis relative to the sun, but without the light of the sun and the stars in the sky, there would be no reference to tell the length of one day of rotation. I am also suggesting that time dilation is not an effect of bent space, but an effect of electromagnetic wave dilation as the waves pass through different densities of mass which affects the hertz of the material domain in relation to other material domains.
- Any interaction with light is always at 'c'
Not sure what you mean here, but it appears that light can be slowed below 'c'.
- Light has a rest mass of zero
Edit: I did some research and "rest mass" may also be called "invariant mass" which is the portion of the total mass of an object or system of objects that is independent of the overall motion of the system.
It appears to me that photons are not independent of the overall motion of a material system because matter absorbs, refracts, reflects or emits photons and we have no other way of measuring them. Photons have zero mass, so its contradictory when we attempt to measure the momentum of a photon because momentum is dependent on mass where p=mv. Does the word momentum have more than one definition? It appears to me that electromagnetic waves do not have momentum, but the electrons and charged particles of mass that propagate them do. EM waves attenuate over distance which is a reduction of wave amplitude rather than speed or momentum. When EM waves slow down through refraction, it is an interchange of field parameters which affects the waves, not momentum because the EM waves go right back up to the same speed as they exit the field of the refracting material.
