question
Does general relativity correctly describe gravity in the strong-field regime of massive neutron stars?
statement
General relativity does not correctly describe gravity in the strong-field regime: significant deviations — e.g. dipolar gravitational radiation or spontaneous scalarization from long-range extra fields — appear at the gravitational binding energies of massive neutron stars.

step-4-constructed

Constructed complement minted at step 4b: the corpus asserts strong-field validity; the deviation alternative is the logically needed competing answer the orbital-decay measurements discriminate against.
