Why are protons/electrons asymmetric?
>positive subatomic particles hang out in the nucleus with neutrals
>negative subatomic particles are smaller for some reason and orbit around the nucleus

For the same reason they aren't symmetric, just because

>>16798901
taus are heavier than hydrogen-1 atoms

but to the best of our present knowledge, as >>16798937
says, just because

The Protons are hang together by the strong nuclear force. But how is the strong nuclear force doing that? Basically, Quarks can't do 1+2=2+1 (they are non Abelian before anyone calls me a quack) and therefore all of the mathematics of a Proton's insides just gets stuck together and it can't escape.

The best quarks can do is pair up in form of Mesons, which the mesons just cause the Protons around them to glue together. The only way out of the situation is to get hit by a high energy particle.

Electrons on the other hand can do 1+2=2+1, and do end up having a degree more freedom. You are correct that the electrons don't want to be near each other, this creates the orbitals via the Pauli Exclusion principle. Technically two electrons can be in the same orbital if they have opposite spins, but they are really spinning around relative to a 4th dimensional space so whatever.

(quarks also spin like this, but their spins are irrelevant because, again, they are dumbasses and can't do 1+2=2+1)
