Either ∀n ∈ ℕ: 1/n - 1/(n+1) > 0 is wrong or Peano is wrong.
Peano has been generalized from the small natural numbers.And all ARE different as there is always a space between them, but that space gets arbitrary small (but still finite.)
"All different unit fractions are different" however is a basic truth. Therefore I accept the latter.
