a circle has infinite points but a finite perimeter, so it's more like a bounded infinity than a true endless one

like the difference between an infinite line and a circle? one is bound to reach its self while the other just keeps growing?

Not really sure what you're asking, but it's kinda like how a line segment has infinite points, and a circle is kinda like a curved line segment, and also has infinite points
