That is impossible because
doubling is a linear operation.

 You (WM) have decided that
ω is like all the numbers n < ω
except maybe ω is humongous,
whatever "humongous" may happen to mean.

That sure seems to be it. He still thinks that there is a "really, REALLY big" number that cannot be added to, or something. Shit happens! ;^o

 You (WM) probablvy decided that
because,
once, you saw something like
1, 2 ,3 , ..., ω, ω+1 ω+2, ...
 Whatever it might mean
to put ω and 1 on the same line,
_what we mean_ by ω is
the least.upper.bound of numbers which are
different.in.size from nearest.neighbors.
 If n is a number
different.in.size from its nearest.neighbors,
then 2⋅n is a number
different.in.size from its nearest.neighbors.
 If n is a number less than
  the least.upper.bound of numbers
  different.in.size from their nearest.neighbors,
then 2⋅n is a number less than
  the least.upper.bound of numbers
  different.in.size from their nearest.neighbors.
 If  n < ω
then  2⋅n < ω
