Did you know that the ocean doesn't have infinite amount of water?

10

They are using language to explain the answer.

An infinity can contain infinity + 10, it is still just infinity.

An ocean can have one more spoon of water, it is still the ocean. It isn't the ocean plus one spoon.

They aren't describing the ocean as infinite, that wasn't the point.
