Oh you totally can (as long as you're working with implied limits, which you have to if infinity is in the mix), you just have to specify if it's a positive or negative zero.

positive or negative nothing 💀 right

i mean, implicitly it's just whether you're approaching zero from positive or negative direction, since we're working with limits.

Like you can shave down a stick however much you want, you can never reach 0 stick by doing so.
