Nominull, I kind of agree that they are the same at the limit of infinite digits (assuming by 2 you mean 2.000...). It just seems to me that working with numbers that are subject to this kind of limit is the wrong approach to mathematics if we want maths to be tied to something real in this universe, especially when the limit is implicit and hidden in the notation.
