Now that is a proof like stating that all odd numbers are primes
because you have shown that 1 and 3 are both odds and primes.
Actually, 1 is not a prime.
And besides, it's actually analogous refuting the statement "there
are no odd primes" because I have shown that 3 is both odd and prime.

And conversely, unusable for someone doesn't mean unusable for
everyone. But "unusable" by itself, without a "for" clause, means to
me that it can't be used -- not by you, not by me, not by anybody.
It is without use. And that is clearly not the case, if there is
somebody using it.
If one means that it's unusable *for him*, then one should say so,
instead of the much stronger (and clearly preposterous) statement
that it is not usuable at all.
Best,
