The intersection of the two sets is not empty, wherever the cut is made.
E(1)∩E(2)∩...∩E(n) = E(n).
No finite.cardinal is in the intersection of
all end.segments.
No finite cardinal is in all endsegments.
The sequences of E(1)∩E(2)∩...∩E(n) and of E(n) both have an empty limit.
No intersection of

is non.empty.
Small wonder. More than finitely many endsegments require infinitely many indices, i.e., all indices. No natnumbers are remaining in the contents.
