You're violating Jaynes's Infinity Commandment:
Never introduce an infinity into a probability problem except as the limit of finite processes!
It is worth noting that the issue of non-consistency is just as troublesome in the finite setting. In fact, in one of Wasserman's examples he uses a finite (but large) space for X.
