I guess you are also going to say that the floor wouldn't crush
an egg that was dropped from a height, as it does no work?
What law of physics equates "participates in crushing" with
"doing work". Is that the first law? The second law? The
third law? It's not any law I've ever heard of. Momentum is
not the same as energy. The floor contributes quite to the
momentum budget without contributing any F dot ds.
