If this is the intended behavior, then the value is not named correctly. It currently behaves as if no maximum is set on the request, which is not the same as setting a max of infinity. It should be renamed to "none," or "n/a," or something similar, and then "inf" could be reimplemented in a way that is actually correct.

I also don't have any idea why you would ever want to share a logistic group across the player, the landing pad, and a space platform hub, personally, so designing the system around that use case seems wrong to me. But that's neither here nor there.
Calling it something more like "none" / "n/a" / "undefined" would indeed make more sense than "inf".

Sharing a logistic section is incredibly convenient it means you can get a completely automated way to deliver all the things you usually need to all planets.
