That's not how we measure the size of infinite sets.
The set of all even numbers is the same size as the set of all whole numbers. The set of whole numbers is smaller than the set of real numbers. The set of all real numbers on [0,1] is the same size as all real numbers.
We only use two "sizes" for infinite sets: countable and uncountable.
