Imaginary numbers have a specific value, just like all the normal numbers we use on a daily basis. Infinity is not a specific value. Instead, it’s a qualitative property like “flat”, “periodic”, or “symmetric”.
What do you mean by action? Like, how running or writing are actions people can take? So maybe infinity would be an action a group of numbers can take?

I think of it this way, infinity is an action. It’s not a “thing.” This is why it’s not countable. It doesn’t stop to be counted.

Well yes and no. With running or writing those actions will stop at some point because we aren’t capable of doing them forever. Infinity doesn’t stop.
