I’m sure it could be explained better, but for points 2 and 3 is it because electrons aren’t particles but perturbances in the electromagnetic field the probability distribution of which is described by the energy shells of atoms?
Kinda-sorta, except that even the shells are a misnomer; the distribution includes points that would place the electron inside the area described by the protons/neutrons, because none of them are particles; they’re all interacting forces in flux until measured.
