What is cool to consider is that some algorithms for Metanumber might yield ASCII art. In some cases, we might see glyphs.
We first have to agree on where to start the reals, which is simple agreement, but the Metanumber strategy could stir up aesthetic commitments since reals do not include an encoding to direct the list itself. Naturals are encoded to place other naturals.
