Math requires the "diagonal" in a Cantor diagonal proof to have as may
digits as there are strings/numbers listed. I have no idea where WM's
"due matrix" arises in Cantor's or anyone's, diagonal proofs.
It must be a part of his MathUnrealism.

You contradict yourself.

I do not contradict anyone except WM.

You answered my question:
4) Can a diagonal be twice as long as the width of the list is?
by
Yes.

That's a clear statement.

Regards, WM

Infinite "lengths" can be "twice" as long as themselves, since twice one
of them is only an equally infinite amount.
