Not by nodes or digits. And that is what counts in mathematics.

The infinite sequence is the first that contains all finite n. What
finite n is missing within the finite terms?

oo is beyond all finite numbers. So the limit 1/9 is beyond all finite
terms.

The infinite sequence of 1/9 is the first that contains all finite n.
What finite n is missing within the finite terms?
