or application that would justify further alephs.
The Axiom of Powerset?
2^oo = oo
Non-linear functions like exp, sin, cos are based on reals. The property of
being uncountable does neither have nor require any comparative. Something
is either countable or not.
It certainly can be compared to those things which ARE countable, and
found to be different.
