に至っても

Used to emphasize that something is true or occurs even in a particularly extreme or unexpected case. It adds a sense of contrast or surprise, often in formal or written contexts. It can follow noun phrases that describe the degree or example being mentioned. Note that it is not used with plain verbs; it attaches to a noun or noun-like phrase that precedes に至っても. Examples: - この程度の問題に至っても、解けない人がいる。 / There are people who can’t solve even this level of problem. - 子供に至っても遅刻は許されない。 / Even children are not exempt from punctuality.
