Fractional charges that (allegedly), quarks have, are impossible to
detect and measure, because quarks don't exist freely, because they are
tightly coupled to the gluon soup. Big difference with electrons, which
can travel freely in space (i.e.: cosmic radiation).

Another explanation is that, at atomic and quantum level, charge exist
BECAUSE it manifests when suffer forces due to electromagnetic
radiation, and then moves in rectilinear or spiral pathways. But this
definition opens the door to explanations about that charges MIGHT NOT
EXIST if the carrier of the charge is left alone and undisturbed.

If the lesser gravity of Mars is what you're thinking about,
imagine a simple sort of a centrifuge as a (six-week)
decompression chamber.
You don't have to buy Higgs on matter, that's only one of
the super-symmetric extremes up at "unification energy",
and your classical mechanics largely work just fine as
with regards to the atomic model of matter and mass.
Charge of course is largely potential, it's merely
the "un-fulfilled" as it were, of course there's
static charge and current both, and, the fluid model
of electricity of course has skin effect not core effect.
When you mention magnetism it is as with regards to
it's really related to the kinetic, and quite formulaically
according to potential, again, potential difference,
also known as "electro-motive force".
Particles, are a conceit. When asked, Einstein was like,
"Are particles real? Yeah, ...." Yet, waves model them,
and, resonance model those.
Gravity as a fall gravity seems sensible. It's all the
real potential fields, versus the drowse-beneath-the-apple-tree
and profoundly-acknowledge-what-goes-up-comes-down when
there's-a-head-bump-because-you-fell-asleep. That is
to say, a fall-gravity requires infinite-distance space
potentials, which is simpler in a sense, than pull-gravity
constantly violating conservation (or, for the lifetime
of nucleons).
The trans-Planckian nucleonic particles the quarks and
quarks and quarks again - that just goes all the way
down to superstrings/supercordes, that's what superstring
theory is, a smooth to-be-continuous background down
past the grain of "the un-cuttable: atoms".
They say superstring theory makes no predictions -
yet actually it's whatever mathematics can actually say.
That said, it seems you're excluding all the other theories
for one that isn't really any of them (for they'd get broken).
Of course neither of Big-Bang nor Steady-State are falsifiable, ....
