: Omega is actually going backwards from Aleph One. You're back to Marathon
: Infinity at that point.
I suppose that since the numbers in sequel titles are presumably ordinals, not cardinals, then what we now call Aleph_One should really have been Omega+One instead, since that's "the next number after Infinity (ω)", ordinally, rather than "the next-bigger number than Infinity (א)", cardinally.
