Interesting point about set theory
Picture a set of measure zero, and picture a set with empty interior.
IMO: To me, these two differ in terms of mental image, FWIW. Shows how "mental images" can differ for different individuals at the very least. Indeed one could probably make a lot of philosophical and psychological points about consciousness etc on the matter. Reading the n-category cafe, “measure zero” is different from “empty interior”—even for compact sets—precisely because Lebesgue measurability is different from Jordan measurability
