    It’s not common knowledge that the digits of pi go on forever?

    (I think I’m asking this as a rhetorical question but I suppose I have to upgrade it to a genuine question)

      It’s common knowledge, yes, but most people don’t care about differentiating between a humongously large number we are not capable of calculating vs an infinite number that can never be calculated even if we have a machine powerful enough to do it, because it’s not relevant to pretty much any day to day life.
