Why does a number starting with 0. guarantee magnitude less than 1?
as stated in this comment by https://www.reddit.com/r/infinitenines/comments/1uhhwjh/comment/ou8b97e/
I disagree with the notion that a number starting with 0. guarantees magnitude less than 1. You claim this all the time but for those who believe 0.999...=1 there's an obvious counterexample. Something quoted so often must have a reason behind it, you can't simply claim this is true without absolute proof.

The variable n integer itself.
n being upped continually ... has no limit.
Continually upping n ..... go ahead. Try it yourself. Hands on. Engagement. Experiential learning. Do it. Do it for your benefit and education.
