No, because a dart throw is not a uniform draw from set elements. Is a uniform draw of length which the inclusion of irrational numbers does not affect. You are 90% likely to throw something in the first 90% of the line. It doesn’t matter if we say we will round anything in [1,2) to 1. There’s a ten percent chance of falling in that range.

Not a 0% chance because there happens to be an uncountable infinity number of options in [9,10)
