1Kings 22:19 Micaiah continued, "Therefore hear the word of the LORD : I saw the LORD sitting on his throne with all the host of heaven standing around him on his right and on his left."
The left and right in kings isn't possible because God isn't somewhere that he can be surrounded on His left and right.
I completely agree! God is an infinite spirit and is omnipresent, filling the entire universe, so he can NOT be surrounded; while created beings (e.g. angels) are finite in space and time (even if it’s in the spiritual realm and not the physical realm).
BUT…since finite beings (e.g. angels, man) can NOT comprehend an infinite being, God does make his presence discernable within a limited space:
Exo 29:11 “Slaughter it in the LORD's presence at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.”
Now, from my own experience, sometimes this presence is manifest within, sometimes it fills a room, and sometimes it is manifest within a distinct location within a room (not that you have to be in that exact location of the room to discern his spirit, rather that you simply discern that the God is in that location of the room.)
So, the language of 1Kings 22:19 doesn’t have to mean angels surrounded all of God’s existence, rather it simply means they surrounded the manifestation he provided of himself.

Job 1:6 "One day the angels came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them."
The verse in Job, in it's context, and by the Hebrew wording used, is understood by most Jewish commentators as referring to them coming to argue with God.
Not sure I understand why it would be impossible to argue with God. Certainly unwise, but not impossible.
Other than pointing out that Job is referenced elsewhere within the Old Testament (Eze 14:14 and 14:20), I don’t have much to add, other than to point out that if a verse doesn’t fit a sect’s doctrine, then maybe the doctrine is incomplete.
