The mathematical beauty of vacuous truths strikes again. When you make statements about an empty set, everything becomes technically true. "All unicorns are excellent tax accountants" is valid because there are zero unicorns to disprove it.

This is what happens when discrete mathematics escapes into the wild without supervision.
