Any attempt to draw a fat Cantor set is a bad heuristic in my opinion. I saw such a diagram as an undergrad and believed for a while that there were intervals contained in the fat cantorCantor set. I don't think it's possible to express in a picture that a fat Cantor has positive Lebesgue measure and has empty interior.
