It's not "inflating", it's "insularum" (they also used to use the tilde as a shorthand for m and n), using the old long s

I'll add Spanish! "Alfil", taken from arabic "(al-)fil", taken from persian "pil", meaning "the elephant", since at some point in the past the piece was, evidently, an elephant.

The system works perfectly, it just looks wonky in base 10. In base 3 0.333... looks like 0.1, exactly 0.1

Do you know what an irrational number is?

Sure, let's do it in base 3. 3 in base 3 is 10, and 3^(-1) is 10^(-1), so:

1/3 in base 10 = 1/10 in base 3
0.3... in base 10 = 0.1 in base 3

Multiply by 3 on both sides:

3 × 0.3... in base 10 = 10 × 0.1 in base 3
0.9... in base 10 = 1 in base 3.

But 1 in base 3 is also 1 in base 10, so:

0.9... in base 10 = 1 in base 10

Conformal Field Theory?

The word has always had a t sound since Old English, and it's part of the reconstructed language Proto-Germanic in the form *ufta. Every other Germanic language displays a t in the corresponding word:

Scots oftin (“often”), North Frisian oftem (“often”), Saterland Frisian oafte (“often”), German oft (“often”), Pennsylvania German oft (“often”), Danish ofte (“often”), Norwegian Bokmål ofte (“often”), Norwegian Nynorsk ofte (“often”), Swedish ofta (“often”), and Icelandic oft (“often”).
