The claim conflates a formal ZF/ZFC limitation with a metaphysical impossibility, when Cantor's absolute infinite (Ω) was intended as a positive theological-mathematical concept, not merely a prohibited construction.

Theological(describing Cantor's view of the absolute infinite)
Relating to God or religion, and questions about the nature of God and the divine.
ZF/ZFC(referring to mathematical frameworks)
These are formal systems—like rulebooks—that mathematicians use to define what sets are and what operations you can do with them. ZF and ZFC are slightly different versions of these rules, with ZFC including one extra rule called the Axiom of Choice.
metaphysical impossibility(what the statement says the knot claim is NOT)
Something that cannot possibly exist or happen in the nature of reality itself, not just because of our rules.
