Yes, of course: For each and every x e IR, x > 0 there are
countably-infinitely many unit fractions which are <= x. (Hint: No
first one.)

Thema verfehlt. The question is: How does NUF(x) increase from 0 to
more? There is a point where NUF is 0 and then it increases. How?

The same as the sign function.

 No, ℵo finite intervals do not fit between [0, 1] and (0, 1]. The sign function fits.
 

There simply is no such "point", as
there is no least positive number. The distances between unit
fractions get infinitely small.

 They remain finite in every case.
