Can quantum-inspired 'tension limits' cure black hole singularities?

Just as quantum electrodynamics limits how strong an electric field can get before pair production kicks in, this work applies an analogous 'saturation' cap to gravitational tension near high-curvature regions. The result: spacetime bounces smoothly instead of collapsing to a singularity, producing regular black holes, extremal black holes, and traversable wormholes from a single framework. A striking side effect is that the bounce location — essentially where the geometry 'turns around' — shifts dynamically depending on the saturation regime, potentially affecting the global structure of compact objects, not just their cores.
