The following sequence 01. 0.1 010.1 01.01 0101.01 010.101 01010.101 0101.0101 ... has the (improper) limit ((((((10^0)/10)+10^1)/10)+10^2)/10)+? = oo.
This implies the limit of the number of digits left to the decimal point is the number of digits left of the decimal point of the limit, namely larger than 0. And the limit of the set of digits left to the decimal point is the same as the set of digits left to the decimal point of the limit, namely {0, 1}, in particular it is not empty - in contradiction with set theory.
