I hate to resurrect an old problem but relativists seem divided and quite
mystified by this question.

Can an object whose dh/dt is not zero be classed as being in an inertial state?

When falling matter's energy is becoming kinetic. Mass becomes motion
toward center of gravity when in freefall. So energy of motion keeps
the total mass conserved. When stopping and becomming still in gravity
motion energy is transfered in momentum and takes its mass with it.
Therefore mass is lowered in gravity when mass stops falling and turns
into heat by conservation. Einstein says the object settles down with
lesser than fundamental mass. He sees time as doing it. Crossing
vector with killing vector I maintain it is the strength of gravity
itself. It is a push principle.

Its your problem .. not that of phsyics. You just haven't learn anything
since lasttime

No

in GR, An object in free fall can be considered the same as an inertial
system for local experiments only.

Look up the Principle of Equivalence.

If the equivalance principle is right then the strength of gravity
should correspond to a quantity of acceleration. And both it and
acceleration have a limit. Gravity has a push limit in fall and also
in weight.
