No, becuase "all which stay below a certain threshol" is not EVERY FISON.

Again, you don't understand that the union of EVERY FISON is a infinite 
operation, since there are an infinite number of FISONs, even if each 
FISON is finite.

When you actually take the union of ALL that infinite set of FISONs, you 
will get the full infinite set of N.

You just don't understand that infinite is not finite, and you logic 
can't do that union of an infinite number of finite sets, as it tries to 
do them one by one, and never finishes.
