The remainder has no opposite term in any binary

Evidence

What is strange is precisely that there is no opposing term in a binary opposition: one can say the right/the left, the same/the other, the majority/the minority, the crazy/the normal, etc. - but the remainder/ ? Nothing on the other side of the slash. — Jean Baudrillard, Simulacra and Simulation, 466
