Interesting. Just for the sake of discussion, not argument...
We seem to be treating "at infinity" as a finite number, as though it can be reached. Ok, then at infinity we will have naturaly used up our supply of marbles ten times faster than it took to reach infinity, therefore the supply ran out long before we finished taking them out. Having an infinite supply of seconds, we can therefore remove the inifinite number of balls.
I get it, but I don't agree with the argument as it implies that we would run out of marbles in a finite time. We can't calculate it, but eventually we would have to run out of marbles before time ran out, even though the number is infinite.
Arguments? I hope I'm not making an ass of myself. I love this kind of problem.
