Interesting.  I do not know many other languages.

I see your point now: while I wrote about the procedure of finding an
interpretation [of the technical or mathematical semantics of a formula]
in the real world [this is what had been ongoing: Ferraris etc], you
mention that even the technical/theoretical semantics of a formula like
(*) can be different.  This is an interesting point, especially since
terms like "right" and "wrong" had been used.

Although I think the "meaning" of the expression (*) in Elisp is clear,
it describes a mathematical term, so the question, asked specifically
for Elisp, has to be answered using the mathematical background.  In my
understanding the OP asked specifically about the empty algebraic
product.


Michael.
