Okay, but what happens in the limit, in your estimation?

I don't "estimate what happens in the limit". I previously defined
/exactly what I mean/, for the purposes of my argument, by "lim n->oo
{C_n}", where {C_n} is a sequence o f sets of pairs in R^2, see my post
of 19 April (2 weeks ago!):

What "happens in the limit, in my estimation" is the function "limit of
a sequence of sets of points in R^2" that I defined there; it is a set
of points in R^2. The remainder of the post you are responding to here
then describes what I mean by the "length" of this or any other set of
points in R^2; it is also the "usual way" we define length.
