You are on better track than any self-styled physicists aka Einstein Dingleberries.
Black holes are predictions from the mathematics of a particular solution (namely the Schwarzschild metric) to the field equations. There are infinite such solutions. Please allow me to present the history once again based on bits and pieces of information with forensic evidences lying within the very mathematics involved.
During the middle to latter half of the 19th century, Christoffel recognized that an object moving in curved space might do so in the shortest possible local distance but not necessarily the shortest as observed by an outsider. In doing so, he was able to derive the geodesic equations based on this concept. However, there are two ways to group the so-called connection coefficients. Christoffel must have known about the other but chose to publish the more symmetric form now called the Christoffel symbols of the second kind. These two groupings of connection coefficients result in the same set of geodesic equations. However, they are not the same. They are only the same when the metric is diagonal.
Then, towards the end of the 19th century came this math alchemist named Ricci. Single handily he invented the Riemannian geometry which has nothing to do with Riemann. Noticing the geodesic equations can be written to equation to zero if an operator is able to operate on the velocity, Ricci the alchemist came up with a mathematical operator called the covariant derivative out of the Christoffel symbols. Apparently, he never realized there is another way to group the connection coefficients. By taking the double covariant derivatives of two adjacent points in space or spacetime and setting to null, he also faced with several possibilities in grouping the connect coefficients. Just like Christoffel, he chose only one and discarded the rest. His chosen one became what is now called the Riemann curvature tensor.
The Riemann tensor is actual an n-by-n-by-n-by-n matrix with n^4 elements. It appeared to be a dead end until (I think it was) his student Levi-Civita came along and invented the Ricci curvature tensor by contracting the Riemann curvature tensor into an n-by-n matrix with only n^2 elements.
The nature of the Ricci tensor being cooked out of alchemists? pot seemed not to have stopped there. It was Nordstrom who realized the Ricci tensor can somehow mimic the Laplace equation describing Newtonian gravity in vacuum. The solutions of the Ricci tensor, where each element describes a partial differential equation, are each element in the metric.
However, the Ricci tensor cannot satisfy the more general case of the Poisson equation. It was Hilbert who modified Ricci?s mathematics to come up with the field equations which include the Ricci tensor itself plus the so-called trace terms to satisfy the Poisson equation.
Believe it or not. The field equations are never tested. All predictions are based on Nordstrom?s null Ricci tensor (in vacuum) since the field equations degenerate into the Ricci tensor in vacuum. There are actually some subtle mathematical faults leading to the field equations, but if a diagonal metric is involved such as all test have done, these mathematical faults become insignificant.
Merely a few months after the publication of the field equations, Schwarzschild came up with the first solution. After all, he had several years to play with the null Ricci tensor. So, the feat may not be as extraordinary as one thinks. Using the linearly rectangular coordinate system (Euclidean) in curved space or spacetime actually yields a non-diagonal metric. This would result in ungodly complexity in the mathematics of solving the null Ricci tensor. However, by transforming to the common spherically symmetric polar coordinate system, it allowed him to work with a diagonal metric which would drastically simplify the mathematics in the null Ricci tensor. Further reduction in complexity can be achieved by choosing another set of coordinate system that yields a determinant of -1. So, methodically did he transform the common spherically symmetric polar coordinate system into another that would result in much simpler Ricci tensor thus simpler partial differential equations. Schwarzschild?s original solution in the transformed coordinate system somewhat resembled the Schwarzschild metric. However, remember that he had to transform it back into the common spherically symmetric polar coordinate system, Schwarzschild?s original solution does not manifest black holes.
Now, follow the reasoning of the principle of invariance. A geometry should be something independent of any observers, right? This is the case because no mortal observer can play God Himself. A segment in coordinate displacement does not describe the geometry. You have to specify the metric to do so. Naturally, the metric is going to be different in each chosen coordinate system to describe the very invariant same geometry. It is also impossible to tell what the geometry without identifying what coordinate system is employed. Any elementary school children should have no trouble understanding the relationship among the geometry, the coordinate system, and the metric. However, the saddest part is that the self-styled physicists do not. Their so-called Riemannian geometry equates the metric with the geometry and tossed away the coordinate system. That should be embarrassingly fvcking stupid of them. All but Hilbert understood what is understood by elementary school children.
A year or two later, it was Hilbert who realized that there are indeed an infinite solutions to the field equations and presented the Schwarzschild metric which predicts black holes. Realizing the whole thing was total crap, he walked away and allowed Einstein the nitwit, the plagiarist, and the liar to claim full credit. Needless to say that Einstein the nitwit, the plagiarist, and the liar had absolutely nothing to do with the nonsense of GR from the very beginning to the very end. Einstein the nitwit, the plagiarist, and the liar should be a total embarrassment to science.
On top of that, a black hole predicted by the Schwarzschild metric can only form in an observer?s very infinite future. Thus, to us, there should be no black holes formed yet. So, claiming to have identified black holes is like claiming to see Elvis alive. <shrug>
I am still amazed that the self-styled physicists would collectively got themselves into such embarrassing mess. Your truly has done enough work in merely a few years that all the self-styled physicists combined cannot have done in the past 100 years. The whole thing about GR is utterly total nonsense. Well, and SR too.
