No. It used to be an hypothesis but it failed many tests so it is no longer even a good guess.
The oddest thing is that this hypothesis arose because Egyptologists believe ancient Egyptians were so backward and primitive it was impossible they could come up with an easier way. This was a stupid assumption to start with and it has failed utterly because numerous easier and much more efficient means have been dreamed up. In fact the most efficient means has even shown to be in evidence; they pulled stones straight up the sides of fiver step pyramids. Even though this was first proposed by Rigano (et al) as far back as 2006 Egyptology has both failed to consider it and failed to address the argument and the evidence.
It's obviously true you are no Egyptologist but it's equally true you refuse to address the facts and evidence as well. You say you see a spiral in the gravimetric scan that proves the concept but you refuse to address any data other than what you see as a spiral. Just like real Egyptologists you refuse to address the real facts of the case and the lack of evidence any stone was ever raised on a great pyramid with ramps.
This IS THE IMPASSE to which I refer. Believers in ramps simply refuse to address the evidence and logic. They respond to facts, usually snipping them, rather than speak to the facts. They say none of the evidence or logic proves anything at all and fall back to ramps as though they are terra firma. But there is nothing at all substantial other than a widespread ubiquitous belief that the Egyptians were too primitive to understand even a device that had been around 1000 years!!!
Nobody will respond to any point in this post. They will not even try to defend Egyptology with facts or logic because their anti-science position is indefensible. Even technology that has been around for a century is not applied to the great pyramids because in their little world the pyramids could ONLY have been made with ramps. They go to great effort to show how it mightta been done but won't spend a moment to investigate how it was actually done.
Egyptology is afraid of the pyramid and choose to embrace a culture they themselves invented from thin cloth.

Man fears the pyramid, time fears man.
