That's not a "base". In base-n, the valid digits are 0..[n-1].

In your system, 1 = 10 = 100 = 1000, and 11 == 101 = 110, and 101 = 1+1 = 11. It's useless as a notation for arithmetic resembling like what bases are used for.

In base 1, the only valid digit is 0, so the only valid number is unit.

Right, I addressed that in my post...
