It sounds to me like you are thinking about this in the abstract without really thinking through the actual biology.
Substances cross the cell wall because cells have mechanisms to transport them through the cell wall. If the proteins necessary for those mechanisms get disjunctional because of mutations, the mechanism stops working.
A cancer cell has no way to stop bunch of random mutations from happening. The idea that it could sounds to me like it misrepresents what cancer is about by a lot.
I would argue every criticism you make can aim at yourself. Obviously viruses have injection mechanisms that can bypass most defenses. If they didn’t virii wouldn’t work.
The rest of it shows a poor understanding of evolutionary algorithms.
Basically, you don’t understand enough biology to see the difference between the two.
Viruses are evolved to interact with relatively stable targets. If we take COVID-19 for example, the ACE2 receptor is used by the virus. If all human cells would stop producing ACE2 receptors the infection doesn’t work.
There are mechanisms to present peptides or protein fragments on the cell wall. Those can break down, but that’s detectable by the immune system because the cell wall look differently.
If they are not broken down they will display any protein fragments that float around in the cell. It’s the nature of cancer that a lot of what floats around within a cell has mutations.
Not having a bunch of random mutations is the one thing that a cancer cell can’t do due to evolutionary pressure.

The lipid nanoparticle mechanism used by the mRNA vaccines could have had a cancer destroying payload.
As I understand it the lipids merge with cell membranes, it’s receptor independent.
So unless the cancer cell can evolve to not have a cell membrane it’s vulnerable.
