90% of infinity is not a finite number.

Any % of an infinite number is not a finite number (I'm sure you already knew this).

Having said that, some infinitiys are larger than others, which is interesting.

There are more decimal numbers between 0 and 1, than integers (1, 2, 3...).

A person can begin to count integers to infinity.

0, 1, 2, 3...

It's impossible to start with the next smallest number after 0.

For example:

0, 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000... ..00000?

I wouldn't say 'larger' but rather more dense? You encounter things more often. Same with the populated words - their number might as well be infinite as well, but they are so spread out you'd be hard pressed to travel between them.
