The nature of 2, whether it is to be regarded as a real, or only a
rational, or only an integer, or only a natural or cardinal, depends on
context.
Note that when one describes the cardinality of a set as being 2, or
that the result of a count is 2, then that 2 is a cardinal or a natural
whereas a weight or a length of 2 will be a real.

You often try to rewrite what Cantor has written, but you always fail to
get the spirit right and often the facts as well.
