The dark unit fractions are smaller than the (all) visible ones. Now: The visible unit fraction don't have a smallest one (of course), but the dark unit fraction do (at least in mückenmath)! WM: "Dark unit fractions have a smallest element." See?! WM: "Visible unit fractions have the [or rather *a*] lower bound 0." Right, but the dark unit fractions ARE BETWEEN 0 and all the visible unit fractions. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinitesimal and: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperreal_number WM: "No smaller [dark] unit fractions [than the smallest one] is existing, because no larger [dark] natnumber {than the largest one] is existing." Right!
