Yes, that was my non-mathematician's intuition.
Also, if I want to transmit a large set of primes (the complete calculated constant), I'll have to /retransmit/. How do I do that unambiguously? Well, "SOS". Transmit the set of primes. Pause long enough. Retransmit them. Ad infinitum. Ensure the pause is very very precise too.
It would be fun to pause for 2.<precision> seconds between retransmits.
Things are observable in the universe because we can tell when they are there and /not/ there. Any homogenous continuum ought to be undetectable (e.g. relativistic frame of reference, so my non-physicist brain says).
Edit: singular/plural bugfix
