Well you could try to talk about proportions, but you’d need some kind of non-standard infinities in order to make that work or just give up on the idea of an aggregative utility function.
Yeah, there’s still difficult stuff to grapple with. Mathematics isn’t my specialization and I’m not in any way disagreeing that surreal numbers might be relevant here. I’ve been thinking about digging into Measure Theory.
