"an ontology of infinite games".
I'm Building a Cathedral. You're playing at A Series of Bets. He's pretending to Build A Cathedral but is really A Series of Intrigues.
You try to know which games you're playing with others.
What are some other infinite game types?

apologies for the at-spam, but I'd imagine that and and might be useful (and maybe enjoy) riffing here.
Or maybe tell me that this is a fool's errand idk.

Carse model conceptualizes infinite game as a single thing, there is only one. You might mean infinite in the game-theoretic sense of indefinitely iterated/repeated. All these sound like Carsean finite games to me, playing to win rather than continue the game.
(I put you as most likely to catch any fool's errand)
Carse may agree with you. But I don't 😀. These are instances, how playing an infinite game may manifest. Semantics aside, knowing what kind of whatever-these-are people are enacting seems fruitful...

Aside: this is my one critique of Carse: he goes too far into the "it's all connected, man!" at times and the anchor in his otherwise-amazing airship gets untethered.
