Alexander,
You only mention gravity but overlooked time. we are all accelerating
equivalently at 9.8m/s^2 in earth's gravity well and time runs slower than an
observer outside a gravity well...not as slow as approaching an event horizon
but still measurably slower as proved by the need to correct GPS satellites.
Time also slows equivalently for objects with spatial velocity approaching
luminal values. IMHO the ability of mass to slow time is multiplied by
wavelength suppression when conductive cavity walls take on Casimir geometry.
The suppression of longer wavelengths inside the cavity walls forms a reservoir
of higher energy density outside the cavity walls equivalent to a much larger
mass but unlike the slow gradient of a gravity well this method is abrupt which
creates
The opportunity for a unique phenomena not available at the macro level. The
abrupt change bordered by the cavity walls allows any small holes or defects to
create a venturi where the reservoir maintains a constant stream that is faster
than the isotropic value outside the cavity - effectively utilizing the typical
slowing effect of mass on time to accelerate it in a very small confined space
between the walls of a Casimir cavity. This interpretation would mean longer
wavelengths are not displaced from the space inside the cavity but instead look
like higher frequency wavelengths because they are being accelerated in time.
No need for near luminal velocity on the spatial axis because we are instead
directly manipulating the time axis.

The equivalence principle is one of the more fascinating ideas in
modern science. It asserts that gravitational mass and inertial mass
are identical. Einstein put it like this: the gravitational force we
experience on Earth is identical to the force we would experience were
we sitting in a spaceship accelerating at 1g. Newton might have said
that the m in F=ma is the same as the ms in F=Gm1m2/r^2.
