Spacetime might not be doomed after all

Abstract
Popular wisdom amongst theoretical physicists says that the continuum structure of spacetime is probably not elementary, but rather emergent. While many arguments to support that view arise from speculative ideas, the argument can also be made by only invoking standard physics. In this manuscript, I shall argue that a novel general theory of relativity might change the deal, while it corresponds to a somewhat minimal extension of the core theory of physics.
