Is that actually true, if the charges differed at the 12th decimal place only? That’s non-obvious to me.


Yes because matter would have a residual charge that would massively overpower gravity even at that small a discrepancy.


To be devil's advocate maybe there is a surplus deficit of 1-part-in-10^12 in electrons relative to protons.
