No, that's not right. That's because the *spacing* of constituents is
driven by their *interactions*, NOT by their size.

The size of a proton is NOT driven by the size of the quarks.

The size of a nucleus is NOT driven by the size of the proton and the
size of a neutron.

The size of the atom is NOT driven by the size of the nucleus and the
size of the electron.

The size of a molecule is NOT driven by the size of the atoms in it.

The size of an ionic crystal unit is NOT driven by the size of the
ions in the crystal.
