I have not heard of this, but when you start getting into the fringes of
ultra sensitive equipment I become skeptical, I have seen too many times
where measuring or equipment sensitivity error was the cause of a
phenomenon.

Didn't someone suggest here about the gravity affecting the atoms of the
feather and of the bowling ball to be identical and cumulatively that is =
why
they fall the same rate in a vacuum?
