Yes, exactly. The model is based on (in the first approach) a “lattice” of some type of undiscovered particle-like thing (what they refer to as “qubits” in the article, which is unfortunate because it is NOT the same “qubit” from quantum computing) permeating space time. Or maybe more aptly, it is that lattice from which spacetime emerges. And what we observe as the force of gravity emerges from the entropic forces happening in this lattice.
