As for the origins of the sun, I can absolutely see this theory as a likely occurrence, but it’s still handy to understand that even if it did manage to absorb comets, relative to its size, the comets would not have ecxerted much of an influence on size/temperature etc. anyway. Then again, I’m just an astrology amateur, and respect your opinion over my own.

Over the billions of years the sun, planets including the Earth, have been “vacuuming” up this debris. This explains the fewer numbers and the rarer occuring collisions, which has given life on Earth a chance to briefly flourish.

The only comets and asteroids left over today are those with relatively stable orbits, or ones with a long periodicy. But statistically, although much rarer than before, chances are we will be hit with somethiong larger than all man made efforts to deflect it.

It seems inevitable.
