As I said, it's approximable to arbitrary degrees of accuracy.

So it quickly turns into a question of perfect tools and other things that don't actually exist.

Somewhat pedantically, if it were archs and lines, I would consider it differently - they are hypothetical constructs and subject to hypothetical boundlessness.

But a straightedge and compass are not imaginary things; they are things of the material world and they are subject to material limitations.

Even one million is nowhere close to infinity, but the sum from x = one to one-million of 1/8^x is so stupidly close to 1/7 that you're most likely getting your toolkit delivered by the Archangel Gabriel himself.

And in less that ten minutes I could write that entire number to file.
