Well, rewriting A=>B as ~A V B gives
(~A V B) & (A & ~B)
which is not satisfiable because the right group requires A to be true
and B to be false, but the left requires either A to be false or B to be
true. This expression is thus false for all possible combinations of
values for A & B, so it can be used to imply anything, but since the
proposition is always false, the consequent can be false or true without
giving any useful information:
