I read these comments first, so I knew that the assumed pattern would be incorrect (without which, it would still be naive of me to expect a non-lateral question from Eliezer). However without being able to test my own inputs I’m not able to reason with any more evidence, so I still couldn’t say if I would have been capable of getting any further. (1 2 5, .3 .2 0 were my reasonable test cases, before I would start being a jackass about complexes and infinities (and indefinities? undefinities? Towers of Babel*)
But I did indeed notice that without a single negative case, she would have been incapable of eliminating “all sets valid”, and am delighted that the next paragraph addresses that.
