So let's read his statement the following way: "But never two (different) unit fractions at the same coordinate."
Well, it's hard to see why he feels the need to express this triviality. The rational numbers (and hence the unit fractions) are "embedded" in the reals. Hence if, say,
a e Q & b e Q and a =/= b,
then
a e IR & b e IR and a =/= b .
Extremely trivial stuff. (Hint: His "coordinate" seems to refer to a point "on the real line", i.e. to a real number.)
Fun fact: He seems to "think" that this is an _important feature_ which proves that there is a smallest unit fraction. *lol*
This guy is just gaga.
