Formulas determine sequences.
The other way round is not possible.

Of course. All constructed finite formulas belong to a potentially infinite collection.
.6 is finite
.66 is finite
.666 is finite
.(6) is infinite

So, there is a point there.
So, there is a formula there.
But there isn't an indexed.formula there.
So, all the indexed.formulas

aren't all the formulas.
Somehow.

Yes. There is no absolute "all" in potential infinity.
