It kinda doesn’t make sense.
x¹= x
x² = x*x
x³= x*x*x
etc…
and even with negative numbers you’re still multiplying the number by itself
like (x)-² = 1/x² = 1/(x*x)

Think of it like its describing a space. X is a line. X^2 is a 2d grid. X^3 is a 3d cube. X^4 is a hypercube. You can make each x the length of an axis describing a space.
Now go backwards. X^4 describes a hypercube (tesseract). X^3 describes a cube. X^2 a plane. X^1 a line. So x^0? It must be a point. Or a single unit of space.
