Läuchli proved in 1961 that $\mathfrak{n}$ is finite if and only if $2^{2^{\mathfrak{n}}}<2^{2^{\mathfrak{n}}}\cdot2$. As a consequence, $\mathfrak{n}$ is finite if and only if $2^{2^{2^{\mathfrak{n}}}}<(2^{2^{2^{\mathfrak{n}}}})^2$. It is still open (asked by Läuchli) whether $\mathfrak{n}$ is finite if and only if $2^{2^{\mathfrak{n}}}<(2^{2^{\mathfrak{n}}})^2$.
