I know the Arithmetic proof and everything but how to explain this practically to a kid who just started understanding the numbers?

Another way to view it is that you cannot write down, in any way, any number that is between 0.999… and 1

The difference is just 0.000… and there’s never anything other than zeros

It’s just an artefact of notation
