It seems that your problem is that you assume infinity exists. It does not have physical existense. It is just a mathematical conception. It is not real.

One step further, as you say, is that the rules that physicist have come up with to describe the universe are based on faulty assumptions that points can contain something. Points are nothing. They have no space. They have no mass. All the infinities in physics arise because of the assumption that a point in space can contain mass.

Point-particles is an approximation that breaks down near the resulting singularities. The way around it is to assume that particles have volume, or at least extension in one dimension, like in SST.

Or you could assume that space itself has a minimum size, so that points in space do not exist. Then all the infinities vanish.
