    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: 2/3

        It 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
