It's possible that all reality is infinite.  If that is true, the only way to make sense of anything is to draw boundaries in which to define things. It would then make perfect sense to say that the opposite of everything inside that boundary is the infinity that remians outside.

If you define ‘opposite’ as ‘not’ then what you say is a tautology. However this is false. For example of directions, ‘left’ is not ‘up’ however ‘left’ is not the opposite of ‘up’, ‘left’ is the opposite of ‘right’.

According to your initial statements, the opposite of everything is contained within the same boundaries and the infinity that remains outside just contains those things which are undefineable.

Mayonnaise, if I’m not mistaken, has no true opposite.
