Full Idea
A language with plurals is better for arithmetic. Instead of a first-order fragment expressible by an induction schema, we have the complete truth with a plural induction axiom, beginning 'If there are some numbers...'.
Gist of Idea
A plural language gives a single comprehensive induction axiom for arithmetic
