    Could gravity's strength also require denisty as an alternative to MOND

    MOND has been one alternative to DM. It is based on modifying acceleration of F=MA. As another alternative, could the strength of the force of gravity be much weaker than expected or predicted by GR when density is low, and as strong as expected by GR when density is above a threshold?
