The Hypernumber "level" Concept
In Musès paired certain fundamental laws of arithmetic with suggested number levels, where fewer of these laws would be applicable with increasing level number. Musès envisioned "... sensitivity to operational distinctions on the part of hypernumbers". In the absence of rigorous mathematical treatment, however, Musès' hypernumber level concept has only been adapted for metaphysical or religious ideas.
Providing defining relations for hypernumbers remains a fringe interest today, though it could benefit description of physical law that is based on the lower, well-understood levels.
The following lists an overview of the levels as envisioned by Musès.

Famous quotes containing the words level and/or concept:
“Young children learn in a different manner from that of older children and adults, yet we can teach them many things if we adapt our materials and mode of instruction to their level of ability. But we miseducate young children when we assume that their learning abilities are comparable to those of older children and that they can be taught with materials and with the same instructional procedures appropriate to school-age children.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
“The concept of a person is logically prior to that of an individual consciousness. The concept of a person is not to be analysed as that of an animated body or an embodied anima.”
—Sir Peter Frederick Strawson (b. 1919)
