Description
When Zeros or Ones gets an empty tuple as its only argument, perhaps we should return zero or one? This way functions that can be called on both arrays and numbers can be simplified, instead of having to special-case numbers.

Research direction
Start by locating the definitions and tests for Zeros and Ones, then inspect how an empty tuple is currently handled as the sole argument. Done means the empty-tuple cases return zero and one respectively, with tests covering both behaviors and confirming existing array cases remain unchanged.
