Whole numbers exist and irrationals exist.

An analogy would be Humans exist but races don't is false - race is simply a subset of humans.

As whole numbers are a subset of integers.

Irrationals exist and are simply reals that cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers.

Being a member of a subclass does not remove you from the super class or make you cease to exist or false.
