    Infinity does not mean "immeasurable". It is not a specific value, but it is a specific concept. Something that is currently immeasurable might later become measurable. That does not mean it went from infinity to non-infinity. It does not mean "undefined". That's a pretty broad word that means anything that is yet to be defined, such as the temperature of the tea I will shortly be drinking. It certainly won't be infinite.

    What makes you so sure our understanding of the interdependence of space and time is the correct one?
    How do you measure velocity? Distance over time. If you can find me a way of measuring velocity without time and space being integral to the measurement, then I might be prepared to accept space and time are not interdependant.

    By that logic we may someday be able to assign a value to infinity.

    Stop. Talking. Shit.

    Saying infinity is undefined != saying everything that is undefined is infinity.

    That's like saying an orange is a fruit = saying all fruits are oranges.

    Present tense.

    Again you're making the mistake of assuming all these things we infer are true based on past observations are immutable. You don't have enough evidence to conclude that.
