Yes, but the number of nines in the sequence after the radix point is
countably infinite rather than finite, hence NaN in this context.

All nines are from the sequence 0.9, 0.09, 0.009, ... None of the ℵo

Yes it does, the sequence of partial sums approaches/converges to one.
This *complete* ordered field of reals guarantees cauchy sequence
convergence. See how real numbers are defined.
