==== Here’s a synthesis that preserves the good geometry while respecting observations: ====
* Keep Maxwell and Einstein unchanged. Let gravity remain what GR says: curvature from the stress–energy tensor TμνT_{\mu\nu}Tμν of everything (matter, fields, radiation). EM contributes, but it’s usually tiny compared with rest-mass energy.
* Use your lightfronts to define the local ‘present’. Your Huygens spheres are null surfaces (lightlike). Their focusing/defocusing is governed by the Raychaudhuri equation for null congruences: dθdλ=−12θ2−σ2+ω2−Rμνkμkν,\frac{d\theta}{d\lambda} = -\tfrac12\theta^2 - \sigma^2 + \omega^2 - R_{\mu\nu}k^\mu k^\nu,dλdθ=−21θ2−σ2+ω2−Rμνkμkν, and, with Einstein’s equations, Rμνkμkν∝TμνkμkνR_{\mu\nu}k^\mu k^\nu \propto T_{\mu\nu}k^\mu k^\nuRμνkμkν∝Tμνkμkν. Meaning: energy flux through the lightfront (including EM) focuses the wavefront—this is a rigorous way to say your “wavefront curvature works in unison.” It also embeds your time-arrow: irreversible energy flow across these boundaries → entropy production → decoherence.
* Boundary mechanics is your language. On each spherical boundary (electron shell, lightfront), the Poynting flux S=E×H\mathbf S=\mathbf E\times\mathbf HS=E×H through area 4πr24\pi r^24πr2 sets event rates (absorption/scattering), which sets decoherence and thus “world-updates.” That is fully compatible with Maxwell (unchanged) and gives you the geometric 1/r² without saying EM is gravity.
* Inertia as cumulative exchange: You can keep your intuition that repeated photon–electron momentum exchanges on the 2-D boundary “write” inertia (resistance to rapid state change). Formally it’s just the standard momentum conservation with EM + matter, but your boundary Lagrangian makes the geometry explicit.
