If ∣h(x)∣≤C near c and a(x)→0 as x→c, then a(x)h(x)→0 by the squeeze theorem, even if h has no limit. Defining the product to be zero at c gives continuity there. For example, ∣x∣​sin(1/sinx) extends continuously at zero; the same oscillation near a nonzero multiple of π has nonvanishing amplitude and does not have a continuous zero extension.
