What is the matter with this second Bayesian example I tried to make:

Example of a coin flip that comes up heads in none of four tosses:

{\text{Bayes Factor}}\ =\ {\frac {\left({\frac {1}{2}}\right)^{4}\ *\ \left({\frac {1}{2}}\right)^{0}}{\ \left({\frac {4}{4}}\right)^{4}\ *\ \left({\frac {0}{4}}\right)^{0}}}\ =\ {\frac {\frac {1}{16}}{0}}={\text{Infinity}}
