To have extra knowledge beyond what WM has is a necessary qualification for every true mathematician, and a lot of non-matjematicians, for that matter. > > Yes you need some external "knowledge" or better say trust in > matheology.

Just like |N exceeds every FISON.
|N is essentially a Complete Infinite Unary Tree.

Just as outside of Wolkenmuekenheim there can be a union of all FISONS which is an infinite path in a Complete Infinite Unary Tree, unions of nested sequences of finite sets of rooted node chains form paths . --
