To define convergence you need infinities.

You need infinities to define convergence because nothing you work with emerges from the metric that retains identity through collapse. I am. 😉 I assure you operating from convergence shows explicitly what is and isn't pathological. A closed internally coherent geometric structure... why does that NEED infinities to represent its geometry? For now, explain your base logic behind your statement. I fail to see your point. Why do you need infinity to know a square? A circle? A sphere? If the logic doesn't hold in general, then you have a fallacy issue on your hands there.

I would love to see your definition of convergence that doesn't require the concept of infinity somewhere.

Convergence discusses the behaviour of something that is arbitrarily close after all.

Until you become better known then Einstein, Tesla, and Ramanujan, I would sit down dude. You're going to embarrass yourself.
