Can someone explain 1/0 in non-axiomatic terms or does it exist solely within the confines of the abstract realm?

    There’s a veritasium or vsauce video on that.

      Can you link to that? I have zero idea how to intelligibly find a result to this inline with what you’re suggesting

        I believe it is the Vsauce video titled The Banach-Tarski Paradox.
