| Mar 21, 2012 at 10:47 | comment | added | fedja | Depends on what you mean by "argumentative". We all agree that the question cannot be settled the on purely "axiomatic/deductive" playground. The interesting thing, however, is that while AC is commonly (but not universally) accepted because it enables us to prove many useful down to Earth things that would be undecidable otherwise, and rejected by some because it brings up a few clear monsters like Banach-Tarski, the implications of CH or its negation in the "everyday math" are much less transparent. So, the question is "can we get something our intuition revolts against from negating CH?" | |
