Your assertions are simply not true in the context of complex analysis. It is common to use "inverse" to refer to the multiplicative inverse as shorthand (though potentially confusing). a a^-1 = 1 is absolutely and uncontroversially applicable to any complex number. It is common and natural to extend to complex plane to include a single point at infinity (known as the extended complex plane, see e.g. https://mathworld.wolfram.com/ExtendedComplexPlane.html ). When you are working in the extended complex plane, 1/0 does equal infinity.
