Dynamic pressure compensation

RSI faces an apparent paradox. If the internal wave of a matter-knot slows in a gravitational field, it might lose the outward pressure that holds the knot open against the 0.73 N universal clamp. The knot would then be crushed smaller, changing its Compton wavelength (the characteristic size a particle has because of its mass).

The theory resolves this through Dynamic Pressure Compensation. The knot's internal wave slows because the medium's tension slackens near a mass. But that same slackened tension is what clamps the knot from outside. The outward push and the inward clamp fall together, in proportion, so the balance holds and the knot keeps its shape.

Measured locally, the knot is always its Compton wavelength, whatever its speed or gravitational frame. Seen from far outside the well, every knot there is very slightly smaller, by the fraction GM/rc², because local rulers are built of the same knots. This is the shrinking of measuring rods that General Relativity describes, and it is why no local experiment can detect it.
