coreless
Lacking a middle
Coreless describes something lacking a core or central part.
An apple can be coreless after preparation; a transformer can be coreless by design.
Figuratively, coreless suggests something without substance or center: The movement felt coreless, lacking any unifying principle.
In manufacturing, coreless construction eliminates the solid center to reduce weight or cost.
