A philosophical video on the Problem of Space treated as a Substance in General Relativity

A philosophical home-video on the problem of space being treated as a substance in Einstein's Theory of General Relativity.

Space is treated as a substance within General Relativity in order to model the actual cosmos. Logically thought, space is only a metaphor for the too-difficult-to-describe quanta of mass-energy comprising the physical Universe. Space in-itself is nothing at all-perhaps the ultimate contingent paradox. Space is infinite at all points, space has no location or extension, and is a volume of infinite extent without existing at all. Space ought not be regarded though as having vacuum energy. 

Instead spatial curvature in General Relativity should be refined to describe relationships of mass-energy tensors. Mass-energy relationship quantification in specific formulations ought to equal  gravitational fields of local systems in given time paradigms.

Logically mass-energy force tensors might take curved trajectories creating an appearance of spatial curvature.
