gollark: It's not proven that they're equally distributed.
gollark: For an example of something which is infinite but does *not* contain all possible number strings, think about, I don't know, 0.010110111... (infinite sequence of zeroes and then an increasing number of ones). That doesn't contain all possible number strings because it only contains 0 and 1.
