Actually, I'm quite confident in the validity that 3D sunspot computer simulation. There's every logical reason to believe that it is correct and accurate even from my perspective and certainly it is verified by satellite imagery and ground based equipment.
Those simulations requires inputs about stuff like composition. If the composition is wrong, the simulations will be too. Your ideas about composition are incompatible with those used in the simulations.
Furthermore, that cross-section graph goes down to 6,100 km below the outer surface of the photosphere. That's below the point at which you think your solid surface resides. If you can't see why that makes the simulations incompatible with your own theory, you're even more clueless than I currently believe you to be. And even if you try to adjust the depth of your solid surface, the temperature profile won't match what you have claimed (it gets hotter with depth in the simulations).

!): It is thermodynamically impossible since it must be at a temperature of at least 9400 K (as measured within the photosphere) and so be a plasma. This has been pointed out to MM many times over the years. Here are some of the explanations given to him that he continues to not be able to understand:
