I am treating your links as arguments from authority, because they don’t provide proof of their assertions, they simply assert them. As I wrote there, I didn’t ask for your credentials to decide whether or not I was wrong, but to provide a prior probability of being wrong. It started pretty high. It declined; my mathematics instructor provided better arguments than you have, which have simply been assertions that I’m incorrect.
My experience with infinitesimal calculus is limited, so I can’t provide proofs that you’re wrong (and thus have no basis to say you’re wrong), but I haven’t seen proofs that my understanding is wrong, either, and thus have no basis to update in either direction on. At this point I’m tapping out; I don’t see this discussion going anywhere.
