But I must say everything looks good for my ideas re gravity push  ...I can fit all this into a push environment defining my theory of everything... but leave it with me for a detailed view later I hope  .

Let me get this right, you are now saying the Universe is awash with the BE condensate?
There is a BIG problem with this argument. First of all we would go from the scenario of having too little mass in the universe to too much. The universe would collapse under it's own gravity and you and I wouldn't have this discussion. Secondly for the BE condensate to form the atoms need to be uniformally distributed. The Earth's motion through the condensate would disrupt the uniformity of the condensate (drag effect). As a result the MM test would show a massive difference in the speed of light in the direction of the Earth's motion as compared to the opposite direction.
