I can not imagine that infinity or zero can every be part of reality.
Both are mathematical limits that in a way circle back on
themselves....like infinite numbers of infinitely small quantities. In
my opinion, reality has to be grainy and quantized. Perhaps the
illusive Higg Boson particles are the grains that form reality, or the
strings you refer to. Perhaps infinity is any quantity so large that
it it doesn`t make any difference if it were any bigger... and zero is
any quantity so small that it can be totally ignored and not be there
in the first place.

Both big and small tend to destabilise to infinite regress. The cell
is tiny and yet full of structure that looks like a science fiction
set in large scale. Atoms contain a range of particles, themselves
collections of particles, themselves possibly strings - the universe
in huge and yet maybe part of an infinite number. We probably have
something wrong.
