I.e. Inf compares equal to itself - is this intentional?
Even if that isn't valid mathematically, for our purposes in a programming
language, Inf is a singleton.
I would have a serious problem with any programming language where it isn't the
case that asking "is $x the same thing as $x in every possible way" doesn't
result in TRUE for all possible values of $x.
That's one reason I seriously dislike SQL's NULL that don't equal themselves.
