That makes the most sense so far...my immediate thought was that that just shows that 1(.000...) is the next number in the sequence not that they're the same, but I guess the point is if the number line is continuous rather than discrete that doesn't make sense. And in fact 1 isn't any more a nice round number than 0.99999... because it's actually 1.00000... it's just that my brain likes it when stuff ends in zero.
Thanks guys!
edit: I'm less happy with the above than I was a second ago. My head hurts.
