According to the Basic Set (page 379) DR 0 is treated 'as if it were DR 1' against fractional armour divisors.

Does this mean...

(a) it reduces damage by one point, regardless of the armour divisor, or...

(b) it reduces damage in the same way as DR 1 armour would, so an attack with an armour divisor of (0.5) would have it's damage reduced by 2 points against bare skin.

If the answer is (b), is there any point at all to using .45 ACP hollow point bullets?
