How about ANY FINITE SEQUENCE AT ALL?

They're not writing in binary. They're defining a base 10 number that is 0.11, followed by a single 0, then 1, then two 0s, then 1, then three 0s, then 1, and so on. The definition ensures that it never repeats, but because it only contains 1 and 0, it would never contain any sequence with the numbers 2 through 9.

And you can strongman this by first using the string 23456789 at the start. It does contain all base 10 digits but not 22.
