Here I show deep into the infinite well, arbitrarily picking my outermost whole circle being drawn at index number -9,854,081. In this Gaussian School arithmetic we can have an index of zero and a rotation of zero but we must use a new name for 0 in flat (finger counting) numbers; we call that point the absolute numerical vanishing point, it lies on the notional bottom of our infinitely deep geometric relative numerical magnitude pit.
