User blog comment:Nayuta Ito/April Fools: Omega Cubed Found to be One!/@comment-1605058-20160401054926

Alas, that appears to be correct beyond reasonable doubt! Indeed, as seen here we have $$\omega=-\frac12+\frac\sqrt{3}2i$$, from which we infer, with help of elementary laws of arithmetic, that $$\omega^2=-\frac12-\frac\sqrt{3}2i$$ and hence (*gasp*) that $$\omega^3=1$$!

It's unbelievable that this extraordinary fact was hidden from us for so long, and yet it was hidden in the plain sight! We need to thank you, Nayuta Ito, and researchers of Fish University, for allowing us to (at last!) see the true nature of ordinal numbers.

I find it terrific that the action was taken so quickly that (perhaps due to (illegal?) use of superluminal speeds (maybe tachyonuc encryption?)) the Wikipedia and all other sources seem to contain correct values of $$\omega$$ for already a few years, despite the discovery being so recent!
