I...what? Hold on, it was commonly thought that black holes effectively compress and hold infinite mass. Then math or simulations (or both) pointed out this isn't true, I think. Running on very dim memories here. IF this is true, then somehow the solar mass of the star is, uh...well fuck me. The ADHD train came in and I lost what I was thinking.
Any chance you have a compelling link on this topic?
Black holes definitely don't have infinite mass. They might have infinite mass density (gravitational singularity) within them, but we can't know for sure, since we can't see inside black holes.
