No.  NUF is provably constant in (0,1], so if that fact entailed the
nonsense that there are any (much less ℵ₀) unit fractions between 0 and
(0,1] you would have a proof of the inconsistency of (most of)
mathematics.  That would be the paper of the century, and you'd win
medals an honours beyond imagining.  Yet you prefer to post in this
forgotten corner of the Internet.  I find that ... telling.

That's dishonest.  It was the very first claim in the first post in this
thread.  It is a literal quote from a head post you made.

You should not have said it because it is patently wrong.  Mathematics
(what you call set theory) shows that NUF(x) is never zero in the
interval (0,1] so saying that it increases "from 0" in (0,1] is wrong.

It is also wrong because NUF(x) is constant in (0,1] so saying that it
increases in (0,1] is absurd.

>> NUM(x) = ℵ₀ iff x in (0, 1]

(aside: NUF is probably defined on R so that "iff" should be "if")

If you could prove that, you would be famous, but none of the
mathematical facts are incompatible with each other.  They are, sadly
for you, incompatible with your initial statement in this thread.
That's why it's wrong.
