Nov 13, 2020 at 19:29 comment added Gabe K In order to be amenable to discrete topologies, you might want to switch the order of $x$ and $\epsilon $ in that definition of "going to infinity" so that the $\epsilon $ may depend on $x$. That will be equivalent to your definition if the topology induced by $d(x, \cdot)$ is discrete.

Nov 13, 2020 at 18:02 comment added Bjørn Kjos-Hanssen Your displayed equation is not formally a strengthening, but rather incomparable to mine I guess? I didn't say it but I was thinking of a bounded space, $\exists c\forall x,y\, d(x,y)\le c$, which is maybe a different direction than you're going in. Still, thanks for the food for thought.
