Is Curved Space An Improvement Over The Use of the Concept of Forces?

The following text has been edited very little from the version that
I added to Wikipedia in April 2018. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime#Is_spacetime_really_curved?
Is spacetime really curved?
In Poincaré's conventionalist views, the essential criteria according
to which one should select a Euclidean versus non-Euclidean geometry
would be economy and simplicity. A realist would say that Einstein
discovered spacetime to be non-Euclidean.
A self appointed realist, of course.
Still, while Poincare didn't understand much
about the language conventions, the basics he
understood correctly.
And it's well seen on the example of the
worshippers of The Shit: while they have to
insist on their non-euclidean nonsenses for
religious reasons - they really always apply
Euclid. Economy and simplicity - rules; common
sense was warning your idiot guru.
