If there any viable system in which you -can- both derive, and find useful application for, the equation 0=1 ?
Perhaps you *did* mean the usual 0 by "0", and the usual 1 by "1". In that case you ask for a genuine application of 0 = 1, with they usual interpretations!
You agree you don't own me any dollars, right? This is equivalent to say you own me 0 dollars, no? But 0 = 1, now. So you own me one dollar, now. Very useful, indeed.
