While the metaphor has limits, if you imagine you are on a mountain top, and looking at a flowing river, you can see the total view,( tota simul) and also see the river flowing within its banks. Thank you.
In set theory there is a concept of two infinite sets but one being bigger than the other. I was impress that Anselm develop the concept way before them
Yes is a different, when I first learn about infinity I was thought that it was the one and only. Then I learn about the concept that there are multiple infinite sizes, and I said to myself interesting. And then I heard about Anselm's.

You’re welcome.

It's a different concept. Those would still remain sets of numbers. You'll find similar arguments as well in Descartes
