No, it doesn’t.  It certainly has 1 as its identity, but that’s not 
the same thing.  Do yourself a favor and talk to real people about 
their understanding of math before you *ever* write any software you 
expect them to use on a daily basis.

A fun thought experiment: what was the identity element for the 
addition operation before 0 was invented?  :-)
