But i would be interested to hear an argument against the above.
I was just fooling around, I think I get what you're saying. How can one infinity be bigger than another, when infinity is... the biggest possible thing ever. I agree, and I think the guy in the video either knows this and is just fooling around or is confused into thinking infinity can be digital when it's analog.
Of course, it's more likely we're confused and he's just talking about ways to treat infinity when dealing with it in math, not as a philosophical concept. In that regard I suppose there can be different "sizes" of infinity.
