Welcome back into the fold, Duane.

I essentially agree with what you are saying. Infinity being equal to infinity in this particular situation doesn't necessarily imply completion, not to mention the whole "outside" of time feeling this particular post has anyway. (e.g. How does one determine that an infinite amount of time has passed if they aren't themselves outside of it?)
