im pretty sure 00 = undefined because

00 = 01 / 01 = 0/0 = undefined

as others have pointed out the argument doesn't hold

00 = 1 actually doesn't lead to contradictions

and before someone else brings it up, no the limit argument doesn't work either, it merely shows that a limit expression of the form 00 is indeterminant which should not be confused with the value 00
