"the list that has D(k+1-j) in the j-th position, j=1,...,k, and L1(n)
in the
(k+n)th position." is an attempt to describe L_Omega.

No, Georgie boy. It is an accurate description of the list considered
in step k+1 of the procedure described. The list described in (ii) is
used ONLY in order to construct the string D(k+1).

Do you use the "No, Georgie boy." proof often? Does it get published?
According to you, (ii) does not describe a list in the limiting case.

You said
yourself that the limiting case, L_Omega, is not a list so (ii) is not
valid.

No, Georgie-boy. You are grasping at straws and choking on air.

So were you wrong before, when you said L_Omega was not a list,
or are you wrong now that you deny it?
