@NNC (maybe ‘There is no greatest positive integer’ would be better)

Yes, "There is no greatest positive integer" would be better. "Nothing is the greatest positive integer" suggests that zero is the greatest positive integer, which is false on two counts (it's not a positive integer, and if it were, it wouldn't be the greatest).
