Attached: 1 image I think I see through the magic trick of the The Library of Babel a little better now. Not that anything about it is "fake" --just that part of what makes it feel impossible is going to a room and finding a book on a particular shelf feels like a very finite act-- but "every book possible" feels infinite. Feels. The hexagons have very long names. It's critical that the books use only lower case letters, otherwise the names would be laughably long. The hexagon names are a more dense encoding.
