So the shell model of atoms with electrons implies the existence of
well-defined electrons? No, just the existence of a cloud of
electrons which have distinct groupings based on binding energy and
angular momentum. The cloud has Z (or Z-1, etc) -e charges and we
can recreate an individual electron if we put in enough energy. But
you can't get that electron as a separate entity until you give the
mass-energy back,
