This is artfully simplistic thinking. However, it is patently illogical and theoretically unsound. Logically, one cannot "have," meaning "possess," the content of a null set. An empty can is a container of emptiness. You may have the can, but not the content. You can not divide what you cannot *have.* Theoretically speaking, zero (and I'm not referring to the author) is a "concept." As such it is not measurable *except* in *relation* to real numbers. It is merely a place holder conveying in *symbolic* terms that there is no presence of measurable quantity in its own set. One cannot divide anything that cannot be measured. oh well, there it is......
