Planet nor a sun can be a gas. It defies every law of thermodynamics. They must have a lithosphere. No, I figured out the typo. It's the internet, we all should get a pass on that.
Was trying to understand your other claim, which you spell out above. But that's confusing. Google tells me that "lithosphere" is defined as the rocky outer layers of the Earth's crust, I guess as distinguished from the more liquid-y core and plastic mantle. So you're saying that stars and gas giant planets have a similar structure? Or just that any heavy elements that get incorporated into a star or planet would logically sink to the bottom, so to speak? Haven't heard this idea before.
How does the conventional model of these objects violate the laws of thermodynamics?

ophiolite sequence is the correct term for our oceans and the soils under the oceans as being earths surface. Though in my view our oceans is part of the surface of the earth. Using scientific terms it's not.
The lack of terminology adds to the confusion.
Notice how NASA tries to explain this layer when explaining metallic hydrogen is what makes up Jupiter "interior"
When they use the term interior. They're combining the whole planet including the atmosphere.
https://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/09aug_juno3 metallic hydrogen is an extremely dense liquid which absorbs light. The dark spots of sun spots is metallic hydrogen.
