Thanks for the fast reply. I had a class and hope you haven't retired.

At the heart of this matter is the conceptual elegance, unbelievable simplicity and yet almost infinite complexity of Einsteinian Cosmology.

All matter in an Einsteinian Cosmology is created ultimately from photons of energy according to the equivalence proportion.

The only way, in an Einsteinian Cosmology that photons can be trapped, captured, organized or compacted according to this proportion is by singularity.

All matter MUST be founded on singularity. This is experimentally and mathematically verifiable. Most "particles" of matter near the planck length, by definition have singular characteristics. To escape, photons would have to exceed the speed of light to escape the planck realm.

A 7-D (reflecting the dualism of the mathematics) Einsteinian cosmology has two macroscopic antipodes and two submicroscopic antipodes. All energy density differences between them make up the universe we perceive.

Particles are a 4-D phenomenon. We see them when we observe the universe from our frame in between the antipodes, our "place" in time. In terms of cosmic reality, there are no particles...only a vast singular realm at the smallest scales of the universe, interacting with available photons and already formed "particles" everywhere...(I speak in 4-D, our own frame.

The Einsteinian cosmos, founded as it is on an almost infinite number of invariant frames of reference is cosmologically a fixed "matrix"...near infinitely complex.

We see that complexity in Neutrino science. We see that complexity in the formation of carbon in stars, and we see that complexity in ourselves- our own bodies. Everything is so dependent on everything else, nothing can "really" change, except in a universally coordinated manner, without destroying the whole.

The "Higgs Field" is a meaningful relativistic concept. It would be nice to name this part of the planck realm for Mr. Higgs. The Higgs Boson; of course it exists (from our frame). How could it not? All the relationships have been figured. If I give the clerk 10 ones, she will give me a ten dollar bill. I can't see nature acting any differently. (By the way, the first law is another proof of a higher than 4-D cosmology). It is the cosmological significance of the Boson that I am not so sure about!
