Does "strong force" attract toward the higher mass or higher density rather than charge? We are taught to believe this, take your pick......but I prefer a model that doesn't need such forces. Here is my take on things, maybe not proven, but interesting to think about. e.g. the nucleus can be modeled as an exit portal to a parallel dimension where all charge reverses therefore it can be thought of as the portal to the anti-world. Charge oscillates between these two dimensions, changing sign as it goes through the portal. Kick a nucleus too hard and you speed everything up in the cycle and get the recoil of an anti-particle which is just the normal particle that didn't finish out it's cycle and enters this dimension prematurely. Therefore atoms are energy clouds expanding through all the shells of charge, then collapsing back down to the size of what we call the nucleus, then reversing charge, expanding and repeating this cycle of breath in the anti-world. In the world, everything that is alive has breath, or a pulsation. The nucleus appears to be dense because a lot of energy trails are trying to get through that portal. Normally everything is quite balanced, but radioactivity may be a clue that something is leaking into this dimension. Tear a big enough hole (critical mass) in that portal and you have a nuclear explosion. Yin-Yang Symbol anyone? Just a two dimensional model of what may really be happening in the atom. Just my deluded vision of things.
