But that doesn't mean there is a lowest most point in (0, 1] as any point you might want to call it will have another point between  it and 0.

 I will not call any point but consider all points. There is no point smaller than all points in the open interval but a smallest one. Only 0 is smaller than all.

Nope, you just don't understand how infinte sets work, because you mind just can't handle it.
What ever value the "smallest" point has, call it x, there MUST be a smaller point at x/2, so there is not smallest.
Not till you can find a positive value such that x < x/2.
Sorry.

You can only have a first point in the open interval if the interval has only a finite number of points,

 No, that is your big mistake. In the interval [0, 1] there is a point next to 0 and a point next to 1, and infinitely many are beteen them.

How? What value could it have? If it is x, what about the fact that x/2 will be between it an 0.
You are just proving that you logic have exploded your brains to smithereens due to its inconsistency.
You are just proving your logic can't handle what you are talking about because it just is totally inconsistant.
