Flawed at the very core

Indeed, also note that a barrier could not exist at the edge to stop everything from supporting it, because since the lower crust is pretty much liquid, it could not have any foundation to hold it.

I note you have said this without any supporting evidence.

Also, a plate that had been pushed towards the edge would have done so because subduction was not possible at the opposite side, so subduction would not be any more possible after it bounces back of the magical stronger than diamond barrier. Also, as soon as the plate a plate at the edge would be smaller then one in the iner circle (which would be often, as the biger one would  a lot of trouble making it all the way) subduction is automaticly impossible, because the smaller plate scould neithe reach the top nor the bottom of the larger one in order for subduction to take place.

Why would the plate have gone from one side of the earth to the other?  Why is subduction 'automatically' impossible?  You sure are making a lot of statements and not backing them up.

Engineer is just repeating something erasmus theorised in this thread http://theflatearthsociety.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5944&start=30

Actually, I made the subdution statement ten days earlier:

What does it matter anyway?

And it has already been demonstrated that this would not be possible. When a plate reaches the edge, there is nothing for it to subduct with.

You have not demonstrated anything.  The outgoing plates subduct under the outer ring of crust.

It was very convenient that this rigid barrier, which never existed in the FE model, suddently came into existence. I'll let you guess what would happen to a cylindical object that is rigid at it's sides, but has a center made of moving parts with a force pushing on it at the bottom.

This rigid barrier is called the crust.  The RE has it too.  As for the cylindrical object subject to a force at it's bottom, it would accelerate upwards.  Was that your point?

It also makes little sense that the sides would be "a very strong structure", since logic dictates that the material of the earth's crust would be denser the closer you go towards the center of the disk, leaving the edges weaker.

You doubt that a cylinder is a strong structure?  Why are compressed gasses stored in cylinders instead of boxes?

Also, repetitive subduction of all plates at the edges would prevent the existence of the ice wall obviously.

Once again, your bastardization of logic and science makes nothing you say obvious.  The outgoing plates subduct under the outer ring.  This ring goes nowhere.

Actually,  Ido that all the time ( I like my sandwishes to be flat, I'll give you te recipe if you want) and when I do, the mustard comes out at the sides.

That's nice.  Since I don't mustard all the way to the edge, when I push down, it comes out the top.  I guess my sandwiches are more mechanically similar to the Earth than yours are.

Yeah well, Flat earth seems to have matter all the way to the edge. Unless the pressure within the earth magically leaves all that empty space at the edge alone. Or maybe a giant alien poured matter only close to the middle.

WHAT DOES THE FACT THAT YOU ONLY PUT MUSTARD IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR SANDWISHES HAS TO DO WITH HOW MATTER IS DISTRIBUTED IN THE EARTH?

I'm not sure but you certainly seemed willing to join me in the metaphor:

You're not sure, that's........nice. I was not making a metaphore. Just pointing out that the behavior of your sandwish methaphor was not a rule of thumb.
