We were discusiing electron orbits

We were?

 

The orbital of an electron and proton is well-known. It's hydrogen. So no, if the topic was an electron fitting into a neutron, we weren't talking about an electron orbit.

The electron in a hydrogen atom is bound by the electromagnetic force. The electron and a neutron is bound by the strong force

The electron doesn't interact via the strong force; it's a lepton. If it did, why would protons even exist?

Evidently it does interact with the strong force if a neutrino is around

Where is this evidence?

And neutrinos do not interact with the strong force either. (Being leptons, and all.)
