Then reverse the assumptions. Maybe it’s the immovable object that can’t be interacted with. Apply all the force you want and meet nothibg

If you applied the unstoppable force and the object of application did not move - then this force was not unstoppable

Was that unstoppable force unstoppable before the object? Was it unstoppable after the object? Did anything stop it?
