Well, it's hard to see why he feels the need to express this triviality.
Your statement is the reason: Before every x > 0 there are many unit fractions. It is wrong since there would be no no different x to distinguish them.
Wrt unit fractions... Say, unit_fraction_n = 3:
unit_fraction[1] = 1/1
unit_fraction[2] = 1/2
unit_fraction[3] = 1/3
unit_fraction[unit_fraction_n] = 1 / unit_fraction_n
... on and on ... :^)
So, take unit_fraction[3], there are two unit_fraction's "before" it: unit_fraction[2] and unit_fraction[1]... Right?
Once I explicitly define unit_fraction_n = 3, that is a "finite" point to start to do things, so to speak... Keep in mind that this discussion is "strictly" about unit fractions, right?
