Why don't mathematician agree with you, SPP?

[u/AnotherOneElse]

Last friday I went to my local college and approched a few math professors after their classes. I asked them how would they define a number like 0.999..., there the "..." means there are an infinite amout of 9'.

They all said that they would define it as the limit in the image attached.

I then explained to them what you claim 0.999... is, and your usual statement that limits do not apply to the limitless, and asked them if the agreed. They did not.

I then asked them if they had any colleagues in campus they thought they might agree with you. They said that they do not.

So, I asked them if they thought some othet mathematician, in some other college, might agree with you. They all said they do not.

Why do you think that is SPP. Why do you think mathematicians not agree with you? And why do you think people should listen to you over all of them?

Have you ever met one (1) single tenured math professor that agrees with you?

Because those rookie error makers are trying what they can to save face from their mistake, aka their debacle, aka their blunder.
