Briefly

The strong force, unlike electromagnetism, showcases behavior that raises fundamental questions about its strength over distances, suggesting a confinement phenomenon that limits its range.
With the capability to pack 118 protons into an atomic nucleus, the research suggests that the strong force's maximum value could influence the largest atomic nucleus possible, pushing the boundaries of atomic theory.
The similarity between the strong force data curve and the B-H curve of ferromagnetic materials hints at deeper physical principles that could bridge disparate domains of physics, such as particle interactions and magnetization.
