I like your comment: " But the real issue is not about the cardinality or topology of any sub-posed continuum, "signiferous ether", or semiotic medium so much as the empirical data streams we actually have, which are captured categorically and coded discretely as sequences of signs. " Exactly. After all [unless you are an essentialist], then there is no such thing as a separate or even topologically discrete 'signiferous ether', for the mediation process - which is not the same as the particular - is an integral component of the empirical data streams of 'sequences of signs'.

The semiotic question goes back to a line from Peirce and the uses later writers like Eco and Derrida made of it. But the real issue is not about the cardinality or topology of any sub-posed continuum, "signiferous ether", or semiotic medium so much as the empirical data streams we actually have, which are captured categorically and coded discretely as sequences of signs.
