I don't "really insist" that 0.000...1 represents anything at all in
standard decimal notation, in fact I specifically deny that it means
anything without being given a specific finite number of 0's with which
to replace that ambiguous ellipsis.

And the "amy666", "tommy1729" ambiguity is unnecessarily androgenous.
