Equality of degree-zero localization maps #
For a degree-one denominator, equality of degree-zero localization maps is equivalent to unit rescaling of homogeneous coordinates. This is the algebraic criterion for comparing scheme-valued points in a standard projective chart, including over rings with nilpotents.

On a degree-one chart, equal degree-zero localization maps are precisely unit rescalings of the homogeneous coordinates.
