What I meant to say was "asymptotically approaches infinity" for 'f(x)' at some limiting value 'x' and thus a left/right mirroring of the function. I shouldn't assume people know I mean vertical just because I say asymptotic, so thanks for catching that imprecision in my wording.

As you probably know, horizontal asymptotes are never what we think of as the 'problematic' parts of Relativity, because when something approaches a constant that's never something that breaks the math.

The Schwarzchild metric, being a relationship of 6 different variables I think, has some relationships that go to infinity asymptotically at the EH radius and some things that approach a constant at that radius, so it's an example of the kind of asymptotic I was talking about _and_ one like your "horizontal" example.
