The liquid has been compared to custard because the molecules lock together and 'thicken' in the same way as the dessert sauce reacts to being stirred when heated.
No it hasn't it's been compared to custard because it's a non newtonian fluid.Shoddy research or too complicated for us fick readers to understand?

How would this feel to the touch? Firm or spongey?
Depends how hard you pressed it.Try it yourself. 1/2 Tbsp cornflour in a cup, add a little water and mix 'til it is the consistency of custard. Pour into hand and let it slop about as it should. Then press it with a finger. You can roll it into a ball. Let go, it slops about again.
