As a CNC machinist i can tell right now without numbers going over 10 none of what I do would be possible, neither would construction, architecture, land surveying and a whole host of other exceptionally important fields of work. Granted infinite is a stretch as to whether something could truly be infinite, because the act of trying to imagine infinity limits it to your own mind. Mathematics is based and without it you can kiss almost everything we take for granted goodbye.

Imagine a house that cuts off at 10 degrees

No. There is no reason why a full circle couldn't have been 10 degrees by default. Why on earth would it be 360? What could possibly be the point? 10 is just as - if not far more - easily divisible then 360. People use big numbers because they want to feel smart.

You're right, we should just divide everything into 10 pieces and count them on our fingers. Precision engineering will require smaller divisions, but that is easily handled by subdividing each of the 10 pieces into another 10 pieces. Just keep dividing by 10 until you have the level of precision you need. You may also need more than 10 of a given object, but we can just group them into batches of 10 and count the batches. Keep batching until you have enough objects.
We will need a way to write this new system. This is also easy, as each object or piece of an object has a number assigned to it, so just write the numbers in a line from left to right starting with the biggest batches and working toward the smallest divisions. Write a dot next to the number that represents individual objects so that you know what all the others represent.
Since the placement of a number on the line determines its magnitude, we could call this system 'place value', and since its all based around divisions of 10 we could call it 'decimal place value'. Once everyone adopts decimal place value, we won't need any numbers bigger than 10. Mathfags btfo'd.

You think you're fucking smart don't you.
