Quote yourself telling me that, Liar.
Not that you could tell ANYone that,
since "trivial" and "relation" both
ALREADY HAD MEANINGS before you came along,
and "x appears in {{x}}" does not satisfy them.
You were in any case talking about "digits" in a way
that is hopelessly ambiguous. You are in a framework
that only has TEN digits and therefore the answer to
ANY question that begins "How many digits" can NEVER
be anything outside the range of zero to ten.
Since this is obviously not the kind of answer you were
looking for, you will just have to learn to talk better.

No, really, it isn't.
If you know what you mean here, you are going to
have to say it SOME OTHER WAY, because
"how many digits" and "appear in order" are both
ALREADY IN THE DICTIONARY and they ALREADY MEAN
SOMETHING ELSE there. "Appear in" in particular
does NOT know how many levels down you are trying to go.
The fact that YOU DIDN'T MEAN that all digits of <12345>
appear in order in {<1111>,<2222>,<3333>,<4444>,<5555>}
doesn't CHANGE the fact that they DO in fact all appear
in order in that set, even though sets don't even HAVE order.

No, I'm sorry, if it is not defined, then it is not defined,
and the question of a maximum can't even arise, since there
is nothing to be taking the maximum over.

It DOES NOT, dumbass! It means there are infinitely MANY
integers! It does NOT mean that there are "infinite integers"!
LEARN HOW TO FUCKING *TALK*, MORON!
