"An electron is not matter." Interesting idea. Do you have an authority for that statement ? Sounds a little odd to me.

An electron is uncrushable.? Can an electron decay?
An electron is not matter. Its a subatomic particle and constituent of matter. It cannot be crushed, because its not in the scale of objects to which crushing (weight force / relative mass) apply. It can of course be annihilated, or "decay," which satisfies my rebuttal of the indestructibility concept.
