This appears fine "mathematically". But what of the interpretation. Does there exist quantities like s^+s and what do the mean? There exist eigenoperators \begin{equation}
s^+s|n>=\sqrt{n+\frac{1}{2}}|n> \\
r^+r|n>=\sqrt{n}|n>
\\
ss^+|n>=\sqrt{n+1}|n> \\
rr^+|n>=\sqrt{n+\frac{1}{2}}|n>
\end{equation}
Which means a double application of r^+r is equal to the number operator
N=a^+a. N=a^+a, a double application of ss^+ is equivalent to the operator $aa^$ and it implies that $s^+s \equiv rr^+$. But, from the old definitions \begin{equation}
N=a^+a \\
N=r^+s^+sr=r^+rr^+r
