All the other numbers can be written wit 0/1
Counterpoint: Floating-point inaccuracies.
Floating point is a consequence of physical computerr being finite not using binary.
Counter-counter-counterpoint: pi in base-pi can be written in one digit
In that case decimal is flawed too, 0.6667 or any such approxination doesnt exactly equal 2/3. It technically happens in any number system where you are dividing by a prime that isnt part of either the base or the number being divided
Counterpoint 1:
0.6̇(Unicode does not support numbers with overdots correctly)Counterpoint 2:
2/3It won't work with irrational numbers, or transcendental numbers even if you allow things like √2.
But honestly I have no idea what the point of this conversation even is

Counter-counterpoint:
Display the exact value of pi with 64 digits in any base N number system.
All numbers can be written with |
You joke but in astronomy there are only three elements. Hydrogen, helium, and metal. Which is just every other element together in one group.
1 is the loneliest
Define "all the other numbers". Do we include only natural numbers? Or all instegers? Or even rational numbers? Do we include imaginary numbers? How about complex numbers? Orbetter go for quaternions?
Define "all the other numbers
If its a number and it isn't exactly 0 or 1.
You still haven't defined number part
