Exactly, and they also have spin 1/2, but we're unsure of their other properties that might make them Majorana particles.

They are composite particles and we know exactly how they behave: like fermions. They are not Majorana fermions, and nothing about them is mystery.

I explained how you're totally confusing things somewhere else in the thread.

My brain added an 'I' in the middle of "neutron" in the parent comment. Probably because I was in the middle of reading something else about neutrinos :) I definitely agree that neutrons are familiar territory.
