@SabineHossenfelder Perhaps the "singularity" is not really a single point in spacetime but, like the Gravastar theory, a shell or hollow region inside a shell where a limit is hit and further contraction is no longer possible?

@denysvlasenko1865 It would make a great pet.

I believe that if the star(it is still a star, in a way) is large enough, there will be shells of material exerting different gravitational forces on the other shells. A gradient of force can describe it, with zero gravity at the center, a shell of quark soup/free quark matter with strong gravity, a shell of neutrons like that of a neutron star with insane gravity, followed by a shell of the kind of matter you would see right at the moment before degeneracy pressure takes all matter into the neutron star state. Super high element matter. After that, I suspect there would be nothing but the surface and event horizon afterwards. My reason for this is that gravitation exert by and on matter should have "knife edge" numbers that delineate when certain things like stellar fusion, degeneration, etc occur. Why should a black hole behave any different from neutron stars or normal sequence stars? They are all powered by gravity in the end.

Maybe around it in the ergosphere?

A black hole sent it as a gift.

Ah, but what of the old "what would happen if I fell to the center of the earth?" problem? If the center of ANY mass is where gravitation is cancelled out by the surroundings, should not a black hole obey the same laws? Instead of a singularity at the center, a near singularity as a shell around the center with either normal matter(super high elements?) or absolutely nothing?

Red Supergiant - "I am strong" Neutron star - "I am stronger" Black Hole - "Who do you think you are kidding? I freaking bend light!" Supermassive Black Hole - "Dude...I sit at the center of galaxies...how strong do you think I am?" Sun - "I exist..."

Your hypothesis and my own are very similar.

This would imply that for supermassive black holes, the concept of a singularity is moot and that a singularity "shell" of quarks should exist somewhere near the core? If that exists, then why not a neutron star "shell", followed by a stable high element "shell" right before the surface and event horizon. When I say high element, I mean elements that we can not synthesize and observe for a long enough time to examine it. "Supermatter", if you will. The concept of shells makes sense to me, but it also implies that black holes, especially supermassive black holes, are vulnerable to instability and the possibility of a black hole suddenly turning into a white hole is plausible.
