Agreed. If they were equal they would take the same number of characters. This is clear favoritism for ".999...".

Well using an uncertainty model, there is a probability that it equals 1, though its rather quite small and that could be due to measurement error.
Not posting on AT as much because Maki/Steeps gave back some of my forums on GHQ. RIP my decade long blog, my blog even had replies from people who are no longer with us :(.

Wikipedia says that .999... = 1, therefore, .999... = 1. I have never seen wiki be wrong.
