Oh! As in, should you be an outside observer, and grabbing the whole planet, you’d be able to feel houses on its surface if it were the size of a golf ball?
Presumably you’d feel like crushing under your fingers like the hairs on a kiwi lol

It would be a lot more smoother, smoother than a marble. But thoose detection of micro imperfections might be possible
