- placebo 9y agoTrue - you don't even need to venture into quantum mechanics, the concept of infinity has been useful in practical science far before anyone dreamed of quantum mechanics - but there's a difference between a definition of what happens to a formula when a limit approaches infinity and claiming to somehow understand infinity as a concept. I mean when you deal with infinite-dimensional operators, infinite-series etc. does it matter what ordinal of infinity is used?
