Really existing sets of real unit fractions have two ends.

What is „an end”?

An end is where nothing follows.

 And thus the lower end of the numbers x > 0 would be 0, a value not in the set, as the set doesn't have a lower end in it.

If it is a set (actual infinity), then the set has a smallest member. But that is hard to understand.

 That is why there is no smallest positive real or unit fraction.

It is easier to understand with unit fractions. But most mathematicians are too stupid even for this obvious fact.
