Ah, I see your point. I was trying to address the more general "intuition" that people have about this, that 0.9999... falls short of 1.0, and that there's some sort of infinitesimal between them. You can use that to talk about the hyper-reals, but, as you say, it still doesn't "solve" the "problem" that people perceive.

So you're right, and I was answering a different (although related) question.
