The GRSI model explains the accelerating expansion of the universe a suppression of gravity as large distance. Such suppression is a consequence of an increased binding energy within a galaxy due to General Relativity's field self-interaction. The increased binding requires, by energy conservation, a suppression of gravitational attraction outside said galaxy. The suppression is in lieu of dark energy. This is analogous to the central phenomenology of Strong Nuclear Force where the gluons field self-interaction dramatically strengthens the binding of quarks, ultimately leading to their confinement. This in turn suppresses the Strong Nuclear Force outside hadrons.
