<s>[INST] Help find the mistake in this problem of finding limit (using L'Hopital) 
Evaluate $$\lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{1}{x^2}-\cot^2x\right).$$

Attempt
\begin{align*}
&\lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{1}{x^2}-\cot^2x\right)\\
= &\lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{1}{x}-\cot{x}\right)\left(\frac{1}{x}+\cot{x}\right)\\
= &\lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{\sin{x}+x\cos{x}}{x\sin{x}}\right)\left(\frac{\sin{x}-x\cos{x}}{x\sin{x}}\right)\\
= &\lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{\sin{x}+x\cos{x}}{x\sin{x}}\right) \times \lim_{x \to 0}\left(\frac{\sin{x}-x\cos{x}}{x\sin{x}}\right).
\end{align*}
Both the terms are in $\frac00$ form. So applying L'Hopital on both the limits we have,
$$= \lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{2\cos{x}-x\sin{x}}{x\cos{x}+\sin{x}}\right) \times \lim_{x \to 0}\left(\frac{x\sin{x}}{x\cos{x}+\sin{x}}\right).$$
The second term is in $\frac00$ form. So applying L'Hopital on the second limit we have,
\begin{align*}
= &\lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{2\cos{x}-x\sin{x}}{x\cos{x}+\sin{x}}\right) \times \lim_{x \to 0}\left(\frac{x\cos{x}+\sin{x}}{2\cos{x}-x\sin{x}}\right)\\
=& \lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{2\cos{x}-x\sin{x}}{x\cos{x}+\sin{x}}\right) \times \left(\frac{x\cos{x}+\sin{x}}{2\cos{x}-x\sin{x}}\right)\\
=& 1
\end{align*}
The correct answer is $\dfrac23$ which can be found using series expansion. But I think I'm making a conceptual mistake in one of the above steps. Could you please point out to the specific step where I've committed a mistake in above solution?
 [/INST] $$\lim_{x\to0}\left(\dfrac1{x^2}-\dfrac1{\tan^2x}\right)=\lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{\tan x-x}{x^3}\cdot\lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{\tan x+ x}x\cdot\left(\lim_{x\to0}\dfrac x{\tan x}\right)^2$$
Now the limit for the last two are too simple for L'hospital
For $\lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{\tan x-x}{x^3}$ either use L'hospital or  Are all limits solvable without L'Hôpital Rule or Series Expansion
