We said that what we described as “numeral
equality”, “being 1-1 correlated”,
“having the number n” were widely differing
phenomena.
That therefore it was an i
llusion to think that to say
“the classes fall in pairs” is, generally speaking an
analysis of what we call numeric equality in simpler terms.
We can if we like put “being numerically equal” =
“falling into pairs” but the use of the one
expression just as of the other has got to be explained in the particular
case.
This we only forge
t.
Thinking about a very special class of examples.
The idea is that if
they ha
ve the right existential structure they do fall into
cou
ples &
this is
demonstrated.
The question how we find out in the special case that they do have the
right s
tructures is neglected.
One could also say that a length a was twice another one
b if two a superimposed gave
b.
Application for wavelengths.
This brings me to the topic of

Now, we could make all sorts of connections.
“It is the essence of these figures to be capable of being
divided || connected in this
