    They said its the same number though, not basically the same. The idea that as you keep adding 9s to 0.9 you reduce the difference, an infinite amount of 9s yields an infinitely small difference (i.e. no difference) seems sound to me. I think they’re spot on.

      No, there is no difference. Infitesimal or otherwise. They are the same number, able to be shown mathematically in a number of ways.
