At first blush, I thought your "thought experiment" relied on assuming my
hypothesis was false, then simply writing what you'd expect to happen
given that assumption. Begging the question. That was the basis of this
response.

At second glance, I realized that the results of your experiment would be
the same under either system, and that you had misunderstood those
results. Thus the second response.

Cheers.

Not at all. If gravity is attractive, two masses inside an evacuated sphere
will experience an attraction which is independent of the proximity or
composition of the sphere walls. If vacuum pushed, this is not true. In fact
if the distance between the masses is greater than the radius of the sphere,
the masses will be pushed apart in your model.
