If there is no point next to 0 thenI.e. „neighbouring” points can’t be defined. There are no gaps.
there is a gap. I do not accept gaps on the real line.
So it is.These points are dark.
Nope, they just aren't.

To be distinct points, there must be a gap, so they can not be neighboring,
There are infinitely many points with no extension filling the space.
Right, and none "next" to another, because there is always another in between them.
But there never is such a point unless you don't actually have all of them.>Then you need no "always" but can point directly to the first point next to another.>>the space is filled by more points, creating smaller and smaller gaps>
That is potential infinity. In actual infinity all points are there at once.
No, that is what infinity actually is. There are not two different "kinds" of it. All the point do exist, and we can express any of them.
Which don't exist unless your "infinite" is just too small and is only finite.The Infinite Set of these values actually exists, and all the values are in it,that includes the first point of the interval and the second and so on.
