This is no different that a kid computing the square root of two by guessing the next digit and refining via computation. There is room for criticism, but the result I find to be in line with my own thinking on the puzzle. It's called arbitrary precision. Close enough is good enough.

Er, no. "Close enough is not good enough". A measure is either a measure or it is not.

Dedekind (like you) knew NOTHING about measure. He only knew that he and all his peers were clueless. Chuckle.
