> Pi, if an infinite stream of digits and with the prime characteristic it is normal/random, will, at some point include itself, by chance.

A normal number would mean that every finite sequence of digits is contained within the number. It does not follow that the number contains every infinite sequence of digits.

In general, something that holds for all finite x does not necessarily hold for infinite x as well.
