This statement is incorrect. Pressure directly affects materials. Its just without pluging the hole with a part of your body you don't actually feel the difference. In static 10 million atmospheres stuff like metal should show some measurable shrinkage. The larger the object, the more shrinkage you will measure.

Yes, you are technically right. Little too much hyperbole on my part, but the bulk modulus of solids in typically in the tens to hundreds of gigapascals
