  1. Again, you can define a new type of a number such as transcendental but the number Pi cannot be placed on the number line. So, is Pi a number? If so, where is it? Hint: Pi is not a point like other numbers. You can ignore Pi but just when you think you got it nailed (well, you cannot nail Pi because it is not a point), you may discover there is another Pi. No problem. You just have to go back all the way to Pythagoras to figure it out.

  4. Incorrect conclusions #1: Sqrt(-1) = i is fine but i is not a number. i is an operator. Saying that numbers are 2 dimensional is not intrinsic to numbers. It is a result of an OPERATION. So, The only numbers are natural numbers aka positive integers. All other numbers are created by operations/operators. #2: Throughout this miniseries the author is using the number line as the "home base" of all numbers. Yet, the number Pi cannot be put on the number line, not even geometrically. Deal with that.
