You need to convince people there is no 8 at the end because there is no end.
If you see an 8 it’s because you didn’t carry the 1. Keep going.
Another way to think about it is that you have n digits, and I’m using the n and n + 1 digit at the same time. But since n goes to infinity, +1 hardly matters.
