The Bohr orbit is the energy minimum. Leptons and baryons have
different rules for binding interaction.
1) Given sufficient pressure (Type II supernova implosion and at
least 1.4 solar masses at the core) you can squeeze an electron into a
proton to get a neutron (and a neutrino to balance conservation
laws).
2) Free neutrons spontaneously decay back to an electron and a
proton (and an anti-neutrino to balance the books) unless stabilized
by the Strong Force (atomic nucleus) or gravitation (neutron star).
3) An s-orbital has an antinode at the nucleus. The electron is
already there, and it doesn't care.
4) The Weak Interaction is active through neutral current exchange
between a nucleus and electron density with an antinode there. It is
ony important (detectable) for the heaviest elements

5) Now, let us ask a much nicer question: What bars U(91+) from
inverse beta-decay?
