A highly disordered state would, by necessity, be none of these because to be disordered implies having no characteristics to speak of at all.

A question here on this statement.
Given the extreme pressure and temperature experienced by the mass in this circumstance, I would have thought that the atoms and their associated particles would be completely disassociated into some kind of particle soup.
Where would you find order in that? Is enthalpy the correct term here?
