I must confess that I cannot understand their point of view. If one
stands on ZFC, then it is impossible to prove CH or its contradiction.
Therefore their belief it is completely meaningless. How should it be
realized?

The acutally infinite, aleph_0 and 2^aleph_0, arose from mistaken
logic.

Compare Cavalieri: Indivisisbles of lines are lines, of surfaces are
surfaces, ob bodies are bodies.

Atoms exist. By means of atoms we can measuere lengths and define
points or small intervals.
Anyhow: All rational space-time quadruples of the universe belong to a
countable set. It is impossible to construct anything A, not even a
thought, that would not cover at least one of these quadruples Q_n
such that Q_n could be uniquely attached to A. Therefore, everything
that ever can exist anywhere in the universe belongs to a countable
set. The Q_n surject the set of all A including all possible
mathematical ideas in all possible heads and other thinking devices,
even all the thoughts and dreams of matheologians about objects of
matheology.
the notion of uncountability is the stupendest stupidity ever heard
of.
