It is a clearer language.

No, the meaning is clear. Of course, because some intevals overlap,
you should have specified what exacly you mean by "nearer". But as
ε shriks the overlappings disappear and the distance between any
two intevals approaches the distance between their centers we may
define distance between the intervals as the distance between their
endpoints even wne ε > 0.
I leave ε = 1. No shrinking. Every point outside of the intervals is nearer to an endpoint than to the contents.
