Another answer is that no unit fraction is lessorequal than all unit fractions. That means the function NUF(x)
Number of UnitFractions between 0 and x > 0
with NUF(0) = 0 will never increase but stay at 0. There are no unit fractions existing at all.

Nope, because there does not exist AHY unit fraction that is less than or equal to ALL Unit fractions,

Impossible because then NUF will never increase. Then there are no unit fractions.

as any unit fraction you might claim to be that one has a unit fraction smaller than itself, so it wasn't the smallest.

Your argument stems from visible unit fractions but becomes invalid in the dark domain.

 The problem with your NUF, is that it is trying to count something from and uncountable end, one that doesn't actually have an end.

The unit fractions end before zero.
