Most scientists do not think that black holes have a "real singularity." The idea of a mass that occupies a single point in space comes from taking Einstein's equations beyond the event horizon, ie. the curvature of space is greater than light so means nothing can have any resistance to distance/size. At some point between the event horizon and the center, quantum gravity (which is not understood) has to come into the picture. One idea is the "black hole firewall," which is that mass gets "stuck" at the boundary of the black hole.

Do the CMB or GWB indicate that the Shapley Attractor / Great Attractor interaction is the omnidirectional mouth / center of it all, or no? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shapley_Supercluster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shapley_Supercluster Gravitational wave background > Cosmological sources https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_wave_background https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_wave_background ... FWIU, all we've done is observe minute confirmatory fluctuations from the ground; e.g. LIGO (Nobel Prize in Physics 2017, Thorne, NumFocus-supported tools)? Could that tell us where the center is? Should there even be one if we're actually inside a white hole / black hole combo? What "dark matter" do we subtract or add to the CMB, GWB,? ...
