Whicn means it never ends, and doesn't have a highest member.
So it is. Nevertheless no FISON is more than 1 % of ℵ₀.
Hard to understand for people without extraodinary mathematical capabilities.
Hint first try to understand 50 %, then 10 %, then 1 %, then 1 ppm, then 1 ppb, then 1/10^10^10^10^10. And then go on. Then you understand the properties of FISONs.
