If 0.999..=1, you have to explain your arithmetic system.
Almost. First you have to explain the notation. That's easy (but
relatively advanced) as 0.999... denotes the limit of a sequence of
partial sums (sometimes called a series limit). The arithmetic system
(the reals, where all such sums converge) comes after saying what the
... denotes.
When *you* say that 0.999... =/= 1 you always avoid saying what the
notation (specifically the ...) means in formal terms.
