Why aren't these 1903 and 1904 classic physics papers more mainstream?

Actually oliver Heaviside based a lot of his electromagnetic theory on the complex scalar waves that Whittaker proposed. Heaviside is thought to be one of the fathers of electromagnetic theory so I'd say Whittakers ideas have some substantiation.
And when you look at hal Puthoffs polarized vacuum representation of general relativity, you have the electric flux density as central to curved spacetime. So I'd say that Whittakers paper does agree with relativity.
