Again, it's like saying 100 pounds is heavy, 1000 pounds is heavy, infinite pounds is not heavy, makes no sense.

Yes, arguing from part to whole is not always a fallacy, correct. But sometimes it is.

In the case of the infinity of a line vs. the "finity" of its individual points, it is a fallacy to say the line must be finite because its points are "finite".
