In this example, I believe that gravity counteracts attracting nuclear forces, and therefore must be repulsive.
I want to emphasize that as a repulsive force, gravity manifests itself only at the moment of collapse...
This is incorrect. The repulsive force is due to the very short distance strong forces, nothing to do with "repulsive gravity".
