Do you accept this proof?

 No. A proof should start with a clear presentation of the premises.

A proof as simple as this one should be understood as it stands. You only try to suppress it.

Then a sequence of sentences should follow, each with an indication
of how they follow from the previous sentence, and which earlier
sentences of the proof are also needed for the inference.

{1} has infinitely many (ℵo) successors. If you don't understand, please ask.
For every number n that can be represented in decimals:
If {1, 2, 3, ..., n} has infinitely many (ℵo) successors, then {1, 2, 3, ..., n, n+1} has infinitely many (ℵo) successors. If you don't understand, please ask.
That's all.
