I'm armchair knowledgeable about GR, but I've come up against something I can't eloquently explain (to someone who asserts otherwise and wants an unassailable answer).
What property results in time dilation even when net gravity is zero?The net gravity at the centre of the Earth is zero, but, as far as we expect, time dilation is at maximum.
(left side of green line in diagram).
Is it the gravitational potential?
