If infinity exists it is, by self definition, complete. There is no reason why infinity cannot exist. That it appears unlikely is not a reason. Saying infinity cannot be 'completed' is not a reason, it is only your claim. A claim you cannot support.
The question is whether a completed real infinity is possible. Those that claim it is possible have work to do.
Simply claiming a real completed infinity could possibly exist is not a rational claim. It is a totally worthless irrational claim.
Show me how a real completed infinity could possibly exist.
I gave an example. If our universe is but a part of an infinite/eternal multiverse in which universes come and go forever, perhaps by means of an infinite quantum field (fluctuations), then this multiverse in which our 'universe' resides is indeed a completed infinity and always was.....being eternal and infinite by definition.
You can't prove infinity is real by just pretending there is an infinity.
That is all you're doing. Pretending an infinity is possibly.
Not demonstrating one is.

The paper burns and cannot unburn.
Yeah, I guess you're some special kind of paper yourself, you can't unwrong yourself.

You can't demonstrate one thing I have said is wrong.
But nothing is more wrong than thinking a series can begin at infinity and end at negative one.
