Just a little plot I did for Moebius and WM using unit fractions on any
line in n-ary space. 3d here...

It still works with:

glm::vec3 pperp = { -pdif.y, pdif.x, pdif.z };

Wrt WM. Are his dark numbers, say plotting unit fractions on a line.
Okay. Well, they will never hit zero even though they tend to zero. So,
are WM's dark numbers the residue between 0 and any unit fraction, so to
speak? So, 1/0 is not a unit fraction but
1/(really_large_natural_number) is? Still finite but I was wondering
about the dark parts?

They are in his imagination only. He simply "wants" them to exist so
that he can use them to refute Cantor's diagonal argument about |Q| =
|N|. He thinks numbers must be identified in order to pair them to show
a bijection. He also thinks that failing to show a bijection means that
there is no bijection.

Some more experiments just for fun:

Completely based on unit fractions for the underlying structure.
