Most of all
it is an invariable set
with all its elements existing
and subject to doubling.
...and its double is in ℕ
n ∈ ℕ ⇔
∃{0,1,...,n-1,n} ⇔

Not if all elements are existing
before multiplication already.
The description of each element in ℕ
requires its double to also be in ℕ
...not so different from the way in which
the description of a right triangle
requires
the square of its longest side to equal
the sum of the squares of the two other sides.
