RE: Seriously now, can it take off or not? What do you think?
Your problem lies in a very common area. It's the zero conundrum.
If you consider an infinite number of way points then it must only take an infinitely small time to get between them. That is, zero time.
So the total journey involves multiplying infinity by zero, which, conventionally, (but not actually!) equals 1, but can be proved to equal any number.
Calculus uses a similar convention.
