Metallic hydogen is impervious to heat and pressure up to 1.44 solar masses do to the degeneracy pressure produced by its electron coat. Electron degeneracy pressure will halt the gravitational collapse of a star if its mass <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass> is below the Chandrasekhar limit <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandrasekhar_limit> (1.44 solar masses <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_masses>) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_degeneracy_pressure This is why loading of palladium will produce metallic hydrogen before fusion is reached. The creation of metallic hydrogen in high palladium loading of deuterium will preclude the fusion reaction do to electron degeneracy pressure that old guard LENR theory assumes.
