Yeah, I guess, lots of maths being done without units is the culprit here.
2 / 0.5 = 4 just makes it sound like you’ve magically applied some transformation to 2, which has cloned it. 2 cakes / 0.5 cakes = 4 half-cakes rather makes it clear why it’s suddenly double the amount, without cloning involved.
If you divide two cakes by half a cake you get four half cakes.
And negative cakes just make you more hungry. So if you’re 2 cakes hungry and I give you 5 you’ll only have 3 left because you ate them.
