What you're saying is there can be no biggest number, a theory to which
I do not really subscribe. As an *abstract concept*, one of course can
always add something to any number one dreams up, but that is almost
certainly non-indicative of the real physical world. One cannot even
have an unlimited number of abstract concepts because of the real
limitations of his brain or any other physical storage/processing device
and, of course, time.
There is 1, there is 0, and there is what we have now. Nothing more,
nothing less, and no infinities. Furthermore, if you have a singularity
(1), that cannot be infinite in a real sense, either, because such would
require complexity and a singularity is by definition totally uniform.
In addition, a singularity (as far as is known today) is unique and
integral, so by deduction here is a case where 1 does equal 0 in reality
if not in the surrogate of mathematics.
I suppose I should say that by "singularity" I mean lone singularity
although speaking of a singularity in any other sense is preposterous.

Contrary to popular belief, it is believable.
