But isn’t a curve just many angles next to one another?

Yes but what if one side is so slightly curved that it’s invisible to the naked eye? Then your total angles would be 179.99 degrees and it’s not a triangle.

Yes, but infinitely many.

From a calculus perspective, you may be able to define it as infinitely many angles infinitely close to one another, but I don’t think that’d be a particularly good definition.
