    Implicitly defining a number via it’s decimal form typically relies on their being a pattern to follow after the ellipsis. You can define a different number with twos in it, but if you put an ellipsis at the end you’re implying there’s a different pattern to follow for the rest of the decimal expansion, hence your number is not the same number as the one without twos in it.
