It's about conventions. As $n$ is an integer, $z$ a complex number, $p$ a prime, $i,j,k$ indices or $A_{ji}$ a transposed matrix so is $ε$ in calculus the byword of something arbitrary small, but positive. Uncounted definitions and proofs about convergence, differentiation or continuity start with an $ε > 0$.

OK. You had to be there.

Actually not a joke, this is what google really gives when you type: "integral of exp(-x^2)".
