I call this "the curse of competency". When you're the only one in the conversation who understands the way things work, you either explain it and educate the others, or you bump heads forever. It never ends, and it's tiresome, and you are forgiven for opting out.

There is actual math on the subject. The Banach–Tarski Paradox describes a way to decompose a solid ball in 3d space and reassemble it into two solid balls identical to the original. Deeply fascinating.

While this is a thing in math, it's not in physics. It requires making infinitely many, infinitely small "spines" (there's a real word for them; I forgot it) -- seeing as physics uses fundamental particles to make things instead of infinitely many tiny points, it's impossible.
