Whereas what is usually done is that the 'white hole' solution (sectors
III and IV of the Kruskal extension) is discarded as unphysical,
No. It's just that we don't observe anything like it in the world we inhabit. (Actually we don't observe Schwarzschild black holes, either -- all are Kerr black holes).
although it has the interpretation of an antiparticle black hole,
No. You try to put words you do not understand together, and end up with word salad. It has the interpretation of a _white_ hole. <shrug>
You have not explained why it would be inconsistent to remove the
interior solutions (sectors II and III).
Omitting regions of a manifold by fiat is not physically reasonable.
Admittedly from the
perspective of the incoming particle, it smashes pretty hard against
the event horizon and gets bounced back out again,
Where do you get this fantasy? In fact, infalling timelike geodesics go right through the horizon and intersect the singularity at r=0.
