Hi guys, I've come up with a new 64 bit number representation where 0xFFFFFFFF is infinity. Hell you know what every value is just infinity.

Assuming your representation's infinity is size of ℵ₀, I set my representation's 0xFFFF_FFFF to the size of ℵ₁. Similarly, if you choose ℵ_(n), I'm choosing ℵ_(n+1).
