the only UN-PROVABLE sentences are idiotic nonsense like
X = 'not (exist( proof( X )))'
Really UN-PROVABLE, UN-COUNTABLE, UN-COMPUTABLE
are ALL Superfluous Self Inflicted Diatribe!
-------
The only WITNESS to missing computable reals is CHAITANS OMEGA!
based on :
S: if Halts(S) Gosub S
UN COMPUTABLE!
-------
Just use the HALT values to make a POWERSET(N) instead!
x e P(N)_1 IFF TM_1(x) Halts
Now it proves a powerset N *IS* countable!
-------
Really, abstract mathematics is the biggest century long con to ever
exist under the guise of 'WEVE FORMALLY PROVED IT ALL!'
You haven't formally proven ANY OF ALL THE UN-DOABLE RUBBISH!
You redid the same errors with Calculus and BIJECTION / ONTO self
defeating function definitions instead!
|N| = |GODEL NUMBERS| = |FUNCTIONS|
= |CHOICE FUNCTIONS| = |SETS|
by your own AOC.
You don't have a SINGLE INFINITE LENGTH FORMULA to even have un-
countable many functions - the whole notion of un-representable
functions is an oxy moron.
