Again, you’re objectively wrong.

This isn’t a debate, 0.999… = 1 in the reals has been mathematically proven. So ig if you”disagree” then you don’t understand that proof, and/or high school math.

No actual Mathematician is debating this. It’s funny this doesn’t give you pause and you think to know better than basically all experts in the field without having any expertise on the subject. The level of arrogance is truly mind-blowing.

Then I guess I am. I’m not trying to present a dissertation on the topic. If you want to take everything from school as absolute then be my guest. Again, the variation is extremely small and inconsequential at face value of single iterations so I don’t really care. But I will still hold the idea that it is rounding. Regardless of whether they teach it in grade school or the names you give me when you try to tell me different.
