Is this what's called a false inflo?

It's seems that it will be branching in 3 places. But, the stub on top is smooth and round

Yes, it is called 'nubbing' or (indeed) a false inflo. It is quite common in seedlings; the advantage is that you still get the branching so more chances of blooms next year.

I agree I would rather have a false inflo than my plants just continuing to grow tall with no branching or blooms in sight.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
