    0 = ∞ + ∞ which is most certainly not true.

    This is only true if both infinite are the same, but one is negative. As a general statement you’re right, that this is not true.

      Well - in the post I replied to there was explicit talk about +∞ and -∞, upon which I believe it is fair to say that ∞ is positive in this example.
