Assume any node that starts a sequence of nodes that deviates from the 
paths chosen by me. Every such node belongs to a path chosen by me, 
because to every node there is a path.

> And how do you choose a path?

Path n goes to node n. The further fate of the path is irrelevant for my 
argument.

No choice necessary. The set of nodes is countable:

    0
   1 2
3 4 5 6
....

Path n goes from the root to node n.
