because 0.111 is a significant difference while the infinitely small number between 0.999... and 1 is not.

Because 8/9 is not equal to 9/9, but 9/9 is equal to 1.

Or .888 repeating might equal .89. But there would definitely be no need to round up to 1. We're not just rounding to the nearest whole, here.
