huh?

I don't see how these equation are useless just because there's a 0 on
the RHS

Maxwell's equations can be derived from Coulomb's Law, Special
Relativity and Hamilton's principle if you want to look at
fundamentals:

http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0501130

"Flux cutting" and "tubes of flux" are pictures that were created by
Faraday around 200 years ago and are no longer a cutting edge
explanation of electromagnetism nowadays, even though still widely
practised by engineers.
