"Really? Would you like to smash head-on into the Earth’s atmosphere at... oh, say, .4c? Water “isn’t solid” either, and yet you can smash into it breaking your legs on the surface tension from a helicopter’s height with just the Earth’s gravitational acceleration."

No need to invoke speeds of 4c or water impacts.

Planck density is 5.1 × 10^96 kg/m³ vs the density of an atomic nucleus at 2 × 10^17 kg/m³.

That's *solid* no matter how you look at it.

Yes, I know, but I was simply showing that even things that are “less solid” may behave as solids would in proper circumstances. (IE further validating your stance.)
