Comment on Does .999… = 1?

Genuinely curious about this one, what function are you assuming when using the limit approach to evaluate? I presume it is f(x) = x, but then it would not have a discontinuity at 1. Or is the point that whether 0.999… = 1 or not depends on the implicit function in the context (in which case, limits wouldn’t disprove the argument but rather add nuance to it)?
