The "problem" is defining what you mean by "infinite" specifically. Infinite is an adjective that you can assign to a set of numbers, and the "infinity" would be the summation of that set, but what set are we talking about? Is it all natural numbers? Rational numbers? Real numbers? Even numbers? Powers of 10? These are all different infinities with different properties. Some can give very odd results, especially with analytic continuation. The set of natural numbers {1,2,3,...} can be evaluated to infinity (โตโ) or -1/12. You have to get more specific when dealing with infinite numbers; you need to define what infinity is when you work with it.
