Don't think we could ever count the number. Unlike what the click bait may say we can't actually see them. Unless we can witness the effects they have on visible light and matter around them we wouldnt know of their existence

Technically, it is not possible to photograph any hole, since all holes are essentially empty spaces and have no mass of their own; the only evidence we have is either the surrounding perimeter and/or the observation of an object 'falling' into the 'hole'...

The neat thing about infinity is that even a small percentage of infinity is still infinity.

Sorry, but that is a logical fallacy, I would say. A part of infinity mathematically is "infinity minus X". Thus: a finite quantum is left, and a finite quantum is what forms just the part.

I would conclude that just a part of infinity still being infinite, is something unimaginable and impossible.

You cannot divide or multiply, add to and substract from infinity. Its infinite. Alter it on a quantitative level, and it is not finite anymore. AND WAS NOT FROM THE BEGINNING ON.
