There is also the mathematical concept of not having a first element of a sequence, where each element has an infinite number of elements indexed before it.

You seem to be arguing that the existence of a mathematical concept implies that the universe must follow it. In this case, you have one concept that implies a first element and another that implies no first element. They can’t both be true.
