The ''Telephone Game'' Effect in Modern Gravity Research

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2025-08-26 v1

Abstract

Triggered by some recent studies within the framework of nonmetricity gravity, I discuss how the basic information regarding the equivalence of the gravitational theories forming the \textquotedblleft Trinity of Gravity\textquotedblright\ has been lost in parts of the literature. As a result, several studies with focus in modified theories of gravity have research investigated the case of STEGR/GR, often without acknowledging this fundamental equivalence or recognizing that their results can be derived in GR
