Yes, in that the field is modeled as arising from personally characterized quantum spin (i.e. chronaxial). But I don't adhere to string theory or extra dimensions and I do unify G & EM simply (as a Personal Theory). So, there are distinctions from what's found in the literature.

ΔI2 = ΔX2 – ΔT2 and Δm02 = ΔE2 – Δp2.
I also find this agreeable, though I prefer their Euclidean representation.
QED sees the field as a far more convoluted swarm of self-interacting virtual particles. This seems to apply to electric charge but it neglects mass charge (thus "quantum electrodynamics"). Either way, an instance of a field (G or EM) corresponds to a particle's future light cone at that moment.
In the limit, as that region goes to zero, we're left with a single, lightlike field element, from which generation of a particle's field may be imagined with "chronaxial" spin.
I believe "relativistic mass" should be as simply derived. Not finding that, I attempt it below.
But moving clocks run slow. Why should a moving object have more instances of its field?

"Finally, let us compare gravitation with other theories. In recent years we have discovered that all mass is made of tiny particles and that there are several kinds of interactions, such as nuclear forces, etc. None of these nuclear or electrical forces has yet been found to explain gravitation. The quantum-mechanical aspects of nature have not yet been carried over to gravitation. When the scale is so small that we need the quantum effects, the gravitational effects are so weak that the need for a quantum theory of gravitation has not yet developed. On the other hand, for consistency in our physical theories it would be important to see whether Newton’s law modified to Einstein’s law can be further modified to be consistent with the uncertainty principle. This last modification has not yet been completed."

The numbers work! The interval equation (X² = I² + T²) and energy equation (E² = m² + p²) are analogous.

I'm sorry about any confusion. "Radiant energy" is nothing special. Taylor & Wheeler use it for kinetic energy, particularly in the case where a "particle" has zero rest mass. Such radiant energy transmits via lightlike intervals.

It's not unusual for science to get things a bit sub-optimal the first time. Spacetime coordinates have their use but lack a justification so robust as to preempt all others.

Spacetime is clearly a well-developed legacy with much to offer but that's no reason to neglect the simpler, Euclidean perspective I provide with interval-time coordinates.
I like toys! So did Feynman, with spacetime the coordinate choice for his ubiquitous Feynman diagrams. As this toy finds extensive utility in both Relativity and QM, it's worth playing with.
==
The literature is replete with references to "light cones" so, I find the model unavoidable. Of course, you and I know that being a structure in 4D, the referenced "cone" is better described as a 3-cone, incorporating 3D rather than the depicted surface. Any rim (3-conic section) is thus understood to be a surface (e.g. a sphere) rather than just a loop.
Agreed! Dimensions quintessentially provide the potential for separation, three offer bidirectional translational freedom, while one (typically referred to as "time") is unidirectional. This can be modeled from a unique, central, Big Bang event, from which a 4D temporal field emanates and "space" is an enclosing 3-surface.

As valuable as General Relativity has been, the Standard Model still lacks a fundamental explanation of gravity. Mass-energy is associated with spacetime "curvature" but there hasn't been a hint as to how mass-energy does that.

Though I can't claim to understand either, the language of your reference seems very much the same as that for spinors, which exists as a abstract description (but not an explanation) of fermion spin.
Interesting but they seem to be suffering under the impression that rotation can only occur in a classical 2-plane (e.g. XY, YZ, XZ, etc.) with as many pairs as the dimension allows. By contrast, Phyxed is perfectly comfortable with solid-angular rotation in an XYZ 3-plane (about time). That's how fields are generated and it's why "independent" spin components of a single fermion are entangled.

That's an absurd restriction by surprisingly narrow minds, which defies the very notion of rotation. Be careful what you listen to.

That's the result of their absurd presumption. Rotation about the t-axis is solid angular rotation in the XYZ 3-plane. It's perfectly reasonable, geometrically speaking.
