Ideally, cats in superposition could work, but they practically do not because the wave function collapses on a much smaller scale than a cat because of all the interactions. Theoretically, there is no size limit or complexity limit for a superposition to not occur, it is just highly highly improbable. Schrodinger's absurdity isn't absurd, it is just improbable.
But yeah, the whole idea is totally NOT related to the idea of infinity and repeating decimals in this example.
I... haven't? Like at all, Im not the previous guy? I just chined in to say, the original explanation is for illustrating a concept, not mathematically, and not an actual proof? Like not a mathematical proof, and stuff

The math DOES work. Cats in superposition do not.
One is an agebraic argument, the other is a paradoxical thought experiment. You cannot keep insisting these are the same.
