Don't get me started on the unnatural and supernatural numbers.

Sound made up, like imaginary numbers.

I mean all numbers are made up when you think about it.

Also unrelated but natural numbers are closed under multiplication (by pure coincidence) while imaginary numbers are not.

This means natural numbers make worse examples when learning about sets.
