Nov 24, 2016 at 19:09 comment added Leliel With most realistic models and materials, some rotation induced flattening is unavoidable, since there aren't really any materials strong enough to resist the forces involved.
Nov 24, 2016 at 19:07 comment added Leliel @XandarTheZenon This is worldbuilding, so we can throw out physics, but within all existing planetary formation models, there will be at least some angular momentum in the dustcloud, or no planets at all. If there's no angular momentum everything just drops into the central star (or starts rotating). so it's not going to be in any universe much like ours unless one calls in magic.
