If one supposes that the electron mass is in fact variable depending on which orbital shell it occupies then we may draw more on Einstein's idea of mass-energy relativity.
The Bohr model is not lost at all; which way to measure then the electron mass again? Milliken's oil-drop - a select sample with averaged resultats? Why not work out an alternate subatomic model, not even too distant from quantized approaches? Just more scaled, a sloping gradient lending itself to calculus for averages.
