The one thing his article didn't say for the arithmetically challenged person (me) is very much about 1/0 - he certainly talked about anything/0 and function()/0 but dived off why 1/0 and 0/0 have subtle difference.

It's a good read but he missed his clear mission. One extra paragraph?

The middle section is the author's answer: they are different because they fail to yield a definite answer in different ways and for different reasons. You will find some alternative ways of looking at it in the comments here.
