its not infinite. Its not even 10 000 I guess. After 50 moves with no captures or pawn moves its a draw so do the math.

The draw needs to be claimed, otherwise the games continues. So I guess "infinite" is the correct answer to the initial question since neither player needs to make the claim.

With automatic draw claims, it is of course limited.

its huge though. if both players wanted to play the longest legal chess game they could usde their first 49 moves moving a knight in and out then push a pawn, then start with the whole knight thing again. not very interesting but lots and lots a moves.

Watch out for three times the same position though, there's another draw ๐Ÿ˜‰

That's right. It could also be infinite as well or some number. It could be anything.

Rhetorically, "How can we know or assume anything about infinity?"
