I take umbrage with the idea that gravity is necessarily quantisable- for all we know, it can’t be quantised.

Is gravity originates from an interaction of mass and distance, and both are quantized, doesn't it necessarily follow that gravity is also quantized?

We actually don’t know if distance is quantised- while distances smaller than the Planck length don’t make any sense with our current understanding of physics, that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s the quantum of distance.

No actually the blue dream bunny told me its hops are quantized, ergo distance must be quantized.

Cosmic Owl dreams come real, Blue Dream Bunny dreams are lies, this is basic science!
