Most assume it's there; but nobody can ever grasp it.
From a philosophical perspective; it's not possible to measure infinite quantities using finite methods and tools.
But doesn't that put forth the "why" question? Why is everything limited and everything has a limit?
It's literally a cosmic regional block: we are stuck on this dimension; with trillions of values to keep us busy, while infinity is beyond our reach, metaphorically and literally.
What a constraint; if you think about it !
Suppose we do live in an ultimate infinity of sorts, but that this local universe we occupy is just a finite part/portion of the infinity. What is the problem again?
Thinking in terms of mathematics: 1, 2, 3, and other natural numbers are finite numbers, yet altogether comprise an infinity of numbers.
