That's true again. The RS functions cannot distingush between different
irrational numbers, because they are all zero for them. But again, our
simplicities are supposed to be useful for reals which are _not known_
yet as to be irrational or not. They are meant as a sort of continuous
transition between rationality and irrationality. I mean, perhaps gamma
is not rational and not irrational and such an in-between number. Or am
I saying something stupid now?

Nothing particularly more or less stupid than saying that perhaps there
is a natural number n which is both not even and /not/ not even, and as
such is an in-between natural.
