Fun fact, while the earth will almost certainly be engulfed by the red giant phase of our sun, it will not be immediately consumed. A floating lump of rock will exist and continue to orbit the center of mass for millions of years inside the sun.

    A problem i see with your theory is that the outer layers of the sun are plenty hot enough to melt rock and as soon as that happens the rock is probably just going to become part of the plasma making up the sun’s atmosphere.
