forgot to state, if the nuclear configuration was just about electrical forces protons could not remain so close either. there is a very baffling balance here. i studied all of these and yet i still do not grasp it all. for example why an electron wouldn't fall into the nucleus and collapse into a neutron whilst forming the atom in the very beginning. people go and say that because it is energetically more favorable to exist in that absurd state, but this doesn't explain it at all. why is it energetically favorable, if so why would neutrons form in the first place? universe could collapse into an extremely more stable state if it undergo such modifications. lower energy, higher entropy doesn't always apply ideally
