What if black holes don't form event horizons?

New work shows collapse can halt at C_max = 0.85 < 1 through
fundamental irreversibility—extending GR with dissipation.

Key results:
- No trapped surfaces form
- Singularities avoided
- Information preserved
- Mechanism: p_I ~ -ρ² reverses collapse

Rigorous critique especially appreciated—that's how science advances.

Spam email at work today so stupid it hurts…

“research institutes that are offering gravitational physics”… How much gravitational physics would you like to buy today? Will one copy of Misner, Thorne, Wheeler suffice or would you like two?

“research institutes (…) sales teams meetings”… riiight.

“We’re targeting people who need gravitational physics using personalized email sequences.”… OK, then. Who DOESN'T want to buy gravitational physics?!
