Are you into mathematics? Do you have any cake?

RE: Are you into mathematics? Do you have any cake?
What's so "trololololol" about my question?

According to you guys it's absolutely impossible to divide a cake with no one but perfectly possible to add absolutely nothing to a cake.
You can't just "add" nothing to a cake, that would defeat the purpose of the addition operation in the first place, no addition took place there. So why is it okay to add nothing to a cake but not okay to divide a cake among no one? Seems like a perfectly reasonable question to me.
