Moreover, David McGoveran's Ordering Operator Calculus approach to the proton/electron mass ratio (based on just the first 3 of the 4 levels of the CH) does treat those pure/dimensionless numbers as possessing a physical dimension -- mass IIRC. BTW, Dave has refuted Cantor as part of his discrete *and finite *approach to the foundation of physics: https://www.academia.edu/93528167/Interval_Arguments_Two_Refutations_of_Cantors_1874_and_1878_1_Arguments ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/Teaac2c1a9c4f4ce3-Mc871de4f250d7974630c8d81 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
