There's no event horizon if it doesn't reach a point. And in fact, i guess nitikin was talking about the plank densitys being a limiting factor here. That's something new that he's trying to integrate he's doing with quantum gravity a little bit. His earlier paper did not do that. The total visible matter mass of the abservable universe is like six kilogram per cubic meter. So just put that in reference, the density of that plank stars is like 51 orders of magnitude
