This question is cross posted from MSE.
Let $F$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}$ and let $S_F$ denote the set of values which satisfy some generalized polynomial whose exponents and coefficients are drawn from $F$. That is, we let $S_F$ denote $$\bigg \{x \in \mathbb{R}: 0=\sum_{i=1}^n{a_i x^{e_i}}: e_i \in F \text{ distinct}, a_i\in F \text{ non-zero}, n\in \mathbb{N} \bigg \}$$
Then $S_{\mathbb{\mathbb{Q}}}$ is the set of algebraic real numbers and we start to see the beginnings of a chain:
$ \mathbb{Q} \subsetneq S_\mathbb{Q} \subsetneq S_{S_\mathbb{Q}} $
Main Question
Does this chain continue forever? That is, we let $A_0= \mathbb{Q}$ and let $A_{n+1}=S_{A_{n}}$. Is it the case that $A_n \subsetneq A_{n+1}$ for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$?
Other curiosities:
Is $A_i$ always a field? Perhaps, the argument is analogous to this. Or maybe this is just the case in a more general setting: Is it the case that $F \subset \mathbb{R}$, a field implies that $S_F$ is a field?
Is it possible to see that $e\notin \cup A_i$? Perhaps this is just a tweaking of LW Theorem.
