Reasons People Wouldn't Weaponize These Gravity Machines

+0
−0

So when making my space stories I have put them in a technological time in history where gravity manipulators are available to the common creature and you can use it to go to other planets and live in zero-G environments, the science isn't important(mostly because I'm shamelessly hand waving it with two words Exotic Matter) and what it exactly does is make the gravity a person(creature) experiences equal to that of their home planet, rather than that of their current environment. And this is a problem because it leaves the option for any person to use the gravity machine to experience less than their normal gravity, effectively giving them super strength, and this happening would mess up the story and plot as a major theme is natural ability of different creatures. So my question is what excuses or reasons could I give to why no one uses this technology like this?
