We’ve already detected the gravitational waves of two solar masses black holes merging. here is the sound it made

Same thing, they will begin orbiting one another. The gravity wells are huge and they would have to be Pixel perfect to collide head on which the odds are so vanishingly small as to be treated as zero

There is so much space between stars that nearly no collisions occur. The gravity well surrounding the black hole will accelerate bodies around it, before any collision or consumption occurs. It’s a disruption more than a collision.

Shredded by relative speeds. A net wouldn’t stop something traveling at thousands of feet per second, and if it was going slower, it’s take literal millennia to clean ip
