gollark: If you remove a lot it would cool down and become a red dwarf.
gollark: Similarly to biological life stars run on internal feedback loops; if fusion produces less heat the radiation pressure keeping the outer layers up is reduced so the core contracts and more stuff can fuse.
gollark: Oxygen CAN fuse in stars, it just requires higher pressure and temperatures.
gollark: Although possibly the outer layers would be cast off and be larger and (OH NO) red.
gollark: Based on my very approximate knowledge of stellar dynamics, that would make it... contract and burn hotter.
