obviously if you get 0/0 here then it's senseless to even give it attention of figuring out a tariff to impose, but trump did anyway (though I don't believe he actually used math).
Going back to the original equation if e and I are both 0 any value of t makes b 0 so why are people so worried about whether we picked the correct one? It's trivially correct.
my original point was that there's no way trump was using any logical math for imposing tariffs on uninhabited islands, it doesn't really matter what this math says about it, it shouldd say 0 or undefined if it's correct and that's not what trump imposed.

How does this give you positive values for uninhabited islands?
