I did know about hyperreals, which is why I went with just "questionable". ~~IIRC you lose things like commutativity and associativity of arithmetic when you include extra numbers in the real line, and I feel like numbers should really have those.~~

~~Maybe that's just my opinion though. Should I edit it?~~

Edit: I remembered very wrong. Fixing.
