(1) A number can be singled out out of the mass of all numbers. It is a spisa.Real numbers are not atomic: you can always divide them into x < n/2 and x >= n/2. They are therefore stuff.
So would you say that {pimu li bi cu du li vo}?
Is that what you mean by fractioning reals?
Can you also say that {re li vo cu du li bi}? No, that
doesn't work because it would have to work for each of
the {livo}'s individually. Maybe {piro loi re li vo cu du li bi}?
"the whole of two 4's is 8"? Then {li pa joi li pa du li re}?
Numbers have the peculiarity that every possible bit of a number is a spisa.3D objects have the peculiarity that every possible bit of a spisa are non-spisa. As in, pa lo namcu cu se pagbu re lo namcu But pa lo djacu na se pagbu re lo djacu
{pa lo namcu cu se pagbu re lo namcu} means "there is exactly
one number which is part of exactly two numbers", clearly
false. You are probably speaking of number-Kind.
