Right, in any case, infinity is only a manageable magnitude in mathematics, but not in physics where it represents a nightmare and headaches. In physics, only an indeterminate magnitude can be accepted, which can be very large or also very small, but only up to a certain limit. In physics, infinity and absolute nothingness can't exist.
