Feb 4, 2023 at 22:15 comment added Nate River Ah yes, I just thought of that as well. You don’t have to union over all $x \in A$. Nice.
Feb 4, 2023 at 22:15 comment added Fedor Petrov Let $\alpha=\sup A$. If $\alpha\in A$, then $A=A\cap [0,\alpha]$, otherwise $A=\cup (A\cap [0,\alpha_n])$, where $\alpha_n\in A$ approach $\alpha$
Feb 4, 2023 at 22:13 comment added Nate River Hm, wait actually, how do you get the countable union? Since the set of $x \in A$ may be uncountable, you may have to take an uncountable union of sets of the form $A \cap [0, x]$. Am I missing something?
