Isn't that what MOND is doing, to some degree?

From what I have looked into, it breaks down with observed things on the fringes, aka black holes and supercluster type stuff.

This is the "silver bullet" if you will for a lot of these theories: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullet_Cluster

It would be great if "just" modifying the equations works. But it has an uphill climb against observed data.
