Correct. Note that this limit is a real number.

You do not define *this sequence*. If you mean the sequence of real numbers you are incorrect. Set theory does say that there is a limit of the set of digits to the left of the decimal place. This limit is a set.

The limit is {}. {} is not a real number. {} does not have a reciprocal
Two different limits which are not the same. No reason for them to be the same. No contradiction.
