The Möbius strip is still made up of substance that occupies space. Therefore,
it can't pass through an infinitely small point.

The unique loop of the boundary in the vicinity of Jungholz somewhat resembles
part of a Möbius strip. Perhaps it is the geographic equivalent of one!

By the way, a Möbius strip has only one edge, not two, as well as having only
one side.

For those unfamiliar with the concept, see one at
