Technically the projective coordinate (3,2,1) should be exactly the same as (6,4,2), and every nonzero multiple thereof. So it’s not really correct to say that (x, y, 0) represents a vector, or that adding these projective coordinates is vector addition. Vector addition is represented by an identity matrix with the x, y coordinates in the rightmost column.
