They are 1-1 with the Reals, you can define all the operations on
them that are defined for reals, for every representable real (like
3.1527) there exists a DC. You have some idea, perhaps that there
are "real" reals, as opposed to the various constructs for defining
them? Perhaps you could define what a "real" real would be?
