> 0.5 is a real number

Yes, and it is one of the few we have no problem with (7 is an other example of this class): The rationals (or the algebraic). Unfortunately the vast majority of the reals are not that catchy. E.g. we still do not know how many reals there are. The reals are a beast if watched from a fundamental perspective.
