Yeah, what about the right for the Earth to identify as flat though?

What is solid?
If nucleus is expanded to the size of a fist how far are the first two electrons?

That's wrong. Electrons don't orbit atoms like that.

The actual research result involved an upper limit on the dipole moment of the electron.
"Roundness" is not a real technical term in particle physics.
